I assume that my chances of breaking through TSX security (so I > can use kermit) are small, so is vtserver going to be the easiest method? - Break in TSX (don't ask me how) and write a boot tape to the Cipher (nine track tape?) - Get a MicroVAX II (KA630) or III (KA650 / KA655) CPU and RAM. Replace the PDP CPU and RAM with it. Boot NetBSD diskless, write tapes with maketape, reinstall the PDP11 CPU / RAM, boot from tape. Ahhh - you have a DELQA? - Prepare a RD53 image with a PDP11 emulator on your PeeCee and transfer it to the real RD53 using a MicroVAX. - Use vtserver and a loooot of patience. - ??? -- tschüß, Jochen Homepage: http://www.unixag-kl.fh-kl.de/~jkunz/
