[TUHS] Tape images of 2.9BSD for SIMH?

[Madcrow Maxwell]

I was wondering how I can turn the provided TAR files of 2.9BSD into a
proper tape image for use with an emulator? Is a premade emu-friendly
install tape available? I don't have either a real '11 or a physical
tape drive on my computer?

This 2.11 image in:
http://www.tribug.org/pub/tuhs/PDP-11/Boot_Images/2.11_on_Simh/

contains a perl script which creates a bootable tape image from the tape 
files for 2.11BSD.  It shouldn't be too hard to modify it to do the same 
for 2.9BSD.

Or you can try a pre-built one ;-)

I have made a fair number of virtual machines myself. May it's time to set them
free. Look into

	ftp://ftp.es.embnet.org/pub/misc/emul/images/

for some of them.

Check permissions: I can't read the directories as 'anonymous' :(

Thanks! :)

Please, forgive me. I profusely apologize for all the inconveniences. It's
been fixed now.

I am sorry, I have been busy with lectures and travels and had forgotten the
issue until I finally found time tonight to re-check TUHS on this account.
Be assured I blushed when I saw my mistake and it has been the first thing 
I've done.

I'll try not to leave TUHS for so long again. Promise.

I am sorry, I have been busy with lectures and travels and had forgotten the
issue until I finally found time tonight to re-check TUHS on this account. To
top it off my home computer broke and I only bought a new one yesterday.
Be assured I blushed when I saw my mistake and it has been the first thing 
I've done.

I'll try not to leave TUHS for so long again. Promise.
