Jenner"'s message of "Sun, 18 Feb 2001 10:08:26 -0800" Message-ID: <85u25r6mfe.fsf_-_@junk.nocrew.org> Hello, I just wanted to let you know that GNU binutils now supports PDP-11 processors and 2.11BSD binary file formats, at least to some degree. Thanks to all the people who explained the details of the PDP-11.

I have sent two RL02 images off to Warren to find their way intot he archives (if he so desires!!) They are not without their problems, however. I built them on a MicroPDP-11/23. Configuration: CPU 11/23+ Memory 3072K 2 RL02 disks 1 TS11 tape Apparently, this means more to the Ultrix than to something likr RT11. Using the Supnik emulator, I was unable to build a kernel and even vi core dumps. But then, I am not really sure just what the Supnik emulator is emulating. Could it perhaps be emulating a UNIBUS box and the fact that I do not have support for the map be a problem?? We'll see eventually, I'm sure. I tried the demo version of E11 but it lacks sufficient memory for this to do anything. No vi (just says :too big"), no sysgen (just hangs). If anybody from Dbit is listening, I don't suppose there's any chance you would be willing to give me copies of the full DOS and Linux versions for educational use that I could use to test this out?? I still haven't been able to get into the Begemot site, so I don't know if it will work with their emulator or not. Are there any others out there worth trying it with?? But, anyway, there you have it. Warren wil probsabyl have it up before too long. I am willing to answer any questions I can for people trying to get it running. All the best. bill -- Bill Gunshannon | de-moc-ra-cy (di mok' ra see) n. Three wolves bill at cs.scranton.edu | and a sheep voting on what's for dinner.

Hopefully, he will see this at some point and get back to me. Sorry everybody. bill -- Bill Gunshannon | de-moc-ra-cy (di mok' ra see) n.
