I have a pre-installed disk image for 4.6 but my NETGEN failed on it due to lack of file nodes and it needs migrating to a new disk with more nodes. I ve gotten RSX startup automated on PI power up thanks to a HECnet list discussion from a month or so ago. Could you point me to the relevant archived mail conversation? I'm trying to do this myself with VAX and PDP-11 emulations :) I d like to automate the startup of DECnet as well, so it all comes to life whenever power is applied. What s the hot setup for automating this? I never had DECnet back in the day when I was managing 11s, so I never got to look into the best way to go about this. Your bootstrap startup file is STARTUP.CMD - I think if you tack the command(s) (which I have forgotten, damned addled brain) in at a late but relevant position in that file it'll fire off when you bootstrap RSX-11M+. I used to have one of my previous RSX-11M+ 4.2 emulations setup this way. -- Mark Benson http://DECtec.info Twitter: @DECtecInfo HECnet: STAR69::MARK Online Resource & Mailing List for DEC Enthusiasts.
