Greetings all,
Thought I'd move this in to a cleaner, fresh thread...
I have managed to get a working install of TOPS-10 7.04/7.05 in KLH-10 with DECnet and LAT! I have tested it from my VT420.
You can test it too! SET HOST to MARLEY and LOGIN as 1,2 (no password yet...need to tweak that a bit). Let me know how it works for you!
I still have a long way to go, and I have NO IDEA if I can replicate this install ever again...I have saved a complete (857,360 line!) copy of the terminal output for future reference though!
Next comes either: getting this working in SIMH, or getting it working on a real KS10/KL10 (I can likely convert this setup to a KS10, too. I'd just need to consult the DECnet-10 manuals). Now if only I had a KS10...;))

Good luck. Oh, and seeing the size of the .tap file, I'm thinking it is a full backup :)
Okay. Thanks!
BTW, the correct command is /TM03, not /TM3, but I guess you already known that :-P
Yup. Just grabbing this incase I break something.
SET HOST MARLEY. I've gotten a lot of it working.

I have uploaded at BITXOV:: the file TOPS10KLB.ZIP, which contains:
[BITXOV]$ unzip/list tops10klb
Archive: DUA1:[FAL$SERVER]TOPS10KLB.ZIP;1
Length Date Time Namem

22326592 2 files
klboot.exe is a bootloader which (should) work with KLH10 to boot
t10bootkl.tap, which is a KL-bootable 7.04 tape. I made this stuff some
months ago, and I was able to install 7.04 under KLH10 (including DECNET
suport over ethernet). The details are semi-forgotten (I should have
blogged that! :)), but I have just tried to boot the tape and I got into
the monitor prompt.
Remember to answer '/TM3' to the BOOT> prompt.
Thank you. I'll grab the stuff just in case.

I think you may try to get MIC running by logging into a new job, then RUNning
MIC, then doing CTRL/C twice (that stops the program but does not delete it
from core), then giving CCONTINUE to continue it in background, then ATTACH to
another job or just DETACH from the MIC job. Only be careful not to KJOB it.
HTH, :)

Everything works now that I've patched it to 7.05!
I still have less tasks than I should...but everything seems to work now!

Definitely. Maybe a syntax error in SYS:SYSJOB.INI? That unnamed job in "^C"
state is NO good at all. I do not remember exactly what to do (you may want to
check on alt.sys.pdp10), but I think you should ATTACH to that job and try to
give a CCONTINUE to it (its not a typo: CContinue), then ATTACH back.
Can't be. Same SYSJOB.INI works with the included TWONKY monitor.OPR.EXE runs and all processes start.
(I can't start OPR.EXE at all no matter what I do)
Try to CContinue that job and see what happens. Or try to apply TSU04 patches.
But if Galaxy jobs do no start, you'll have to give "manually" to the monitor
whatever command was thought for batch execution (.CTL files).
Well...I'm trying to get the TSU04 patches installed:
.MOUNT TSUTAP:/READ/REELID:(TSU1,TSU2,TSU3)
?Undefined switch /REA
I don't think that's supposed to happen! It reaches EOT...and feeds commands it shouldn't on to BACKUP.
I may be able to work around this...is there a SLEEP/WAIT command?

I decided to attach DDT to it...and if I am using DDT right...(and I'm probably not...) it's refusing to move past ADDR 0. It doesn't seem to be executing any actual instructions!

MIC automatically detaches here interesting enough.
