Worked fine Rick, thanks. The OS/8 did not display the opening splash

important.

.SET SYS INIT
That causes OS/8 to execute INIT.CM on boot. That'll work fine for you
UNTIL you try to use BUILD to add drivers to OS/8. The normal way to do
that is to "RUN SYS BUILD", insert and enable drivers, then "BOOT". You
then "SAVE SYS BUILD" to update BUILD.SV to correspond to the new
system, but if you have INIT.CM enabled, before you can SAVE that new
copy of BUILD, it's overwritten in memory by the INIT.CM processing. Oops.
So, I usually turn that off.
