Re: [Simh] How to access RT11/FIles11 floppy images on Windows?

John,

Ok, I installed OSXFuse v3.5.5 and disk11fs 0.8.3 on macOS 10.12.3 successfully 
but... 

I tried to mount my RT11 and Files11 disks but they did not work. I was told 
that it can't mount that disk image. 

When I select file.dsk, loading icon displayed forever.  I clicked 'choose' and 
MountDisk11.app immediately displayed popup said that can't mount.

Tim

For OS X, you could give my program a try.

<http://retro.dundasclan.org/tools/disk11fs/>

It's still early in development, but can handle RT-11 R/W, Files-11 (ODS-1, not 
ODS-2), RSTS (RDS-*), DOS, XXDP, all R/O.

Paul has a utility that handles RSTS R/W.

John,

Ok, I tried to open it by using WinRAR but it did not work.  I was able unpack 
them by using MSYS commands.

I now found out that package was already unzipped.  I tried to open unzipped 
tar file and it now worked with WinRAR.

Ok, I will go ahead to install them on OS X 10.12 Sierra.

Thanks,
Tim

Tim,

Thanks for your note and sorry you're experiencing difficulty.  Could you 
provide more details of how you downloaded, what you used to decompress, and 
what versions of software and OS?  I'm using both OS X 10.6 and 10.12 with 
Firefox and am not experiencing problems.  For your reference, the archive was 
created with bsdtar 2.6.2 and gzip 1.6.

2017-03-19 Thread Jörg Hoppe 

Tim,

tu58fs should do: http://retrocmp.com/tools/tu58fs

Its a TU58 emulator which saves the "tape" content not only as opaque 
image file, but also as file set in a host direcotry.
There's also a "pack" / "unpack" option to convert directory content 
into image file and back.

Pack/unpack is implemented not only for but TU58, but for many disk devices.

Sources here: https://github.com/j-hoppe/tu58fs
Precompiled distros & demos here: https://github.com/j-hoppe/tu58fs/releases

Its brand-new:  I wrote it in Jan/Feb 2017 !

Joerg



Folks,

I googled and found PUTR utility but it is for PC-DOS systems only. 
  Does anyone know similar utility to access RT-11 and Files-11 floppy 
images for file extracts for other platforms (Windows, Linux, and OS X)?

Tim

I suppose you could, but why?  SIMH builds just fine on a Mac.  A ready to run 
installable package of SIMH would be interesting, that should be pretty easy to 
do.

Interesting, I’m pretty sure I had it running on Virtual PC on my Mac, probably

This reminds me, has anyone made a VMware appliance for either the PDP-11 or

Years ago I reconstructed an RT-11/Fuzzball disk using
dosemu + dosemu-freedos + PUTR. It didn't work interactively
and resorted to creating an indirect command file called putr.ini.
Running dosemu putr.com then did  the job.

Ok,

 

I got and installed DOSBox 0.74.  I tried to access my RT11 disk images but 
PUTR hung up after entered ‘mount rx0: image.dsk’.

 

With /RT11 option, it successfully mounted but…  I tried to access directory

I can’t kill PUTR until I pressed CTRL-F9 to kill DOSBox.
