I'd rather say "I guess some documentation, as well as some better error handling" would be nice.
I think (without checking) that ERR requires LB:[1,2]RSXERR.MSG to work, and the code barfs in a very unhelpful way when it don't find it.
Hehehe... what do you do when the error-explaining utility borks with an unexplained error?
The Universe begins to implode due to infinite recursivity.
I have borrowed the file from MIM:: :) I'm playing with the tool now. Thanks!

SYSGEN. It is ready-to-run more-or-less.
Oh. Good to know.
Being a total noob, how do I run a "proper SYSGEN"?
set /uic=[200,200]
@sysgen
I might have the wrong UIC though. Let me know if that doesn't work.
Nope. That is the correct UIC. Note, however, that depending on specifics, a SET /UIC might not do what you want. It's a rather long story, but the short of it is that it might just change your identity without changing directory under M+. But that depends on whether you are in named mode or not.
But SYSGEN.CMD lives in LB:[200,200], and a proper SYSGEN means running that thing. And on a real PDP-11, answer a bunch of questions, and wait somewhere between four and eight hours for it to complete.

http://9track.net/pdp11/rsx4_sysgen
At the same site you can find the the NETGEN procedure:

Have fun! :)
And if you really want to have fun, the proper manuals can be found at bitsavers. The one you want is http://bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/pdf/dec/pdp11/rsx11/RSX11Mplus_V4.x/2a/A…
(That one is for M+, the 11M SYSGEN is very different...)

I have just downloaded the stuff. One of the first ones I tried was ERR and...
run err
ERR>17
19:28:09 Task "TT1 " terminated

I guess I'm doing something wrong (or perhaps the task have to be built again to work in my system... RSX11M46+).
