I'm just letting the emulator create the file. I have three defined in the cmd file, DL0-DL2. Disks that are already initialized (DL0 and DL1) are fine, but if I delete DL2 and let the emulator recreate it, I get these errors. So far the only way I've been able to create a working disk image is to copy an existing one, and remove all the files.
Bob, is there anything special in your startup cmd file for the disks? This is what I have: [ken@raptor Disks]$ cat rt11.cmd ATTACH RL0 rt11run.dsk ATTACH RL1 rtv53_rl.dsk ATTACH RL2 rt11dat.dsk SET RL2 BADBLOCK BOOT RL0 RL2 is the one I'm trying to initialize. -----Original Message----- From: simh-boun...@trailing-edge.com [mailto:simh-boun...@trailing-edge.com] On Behalf Of Bob Supnik Sent: Wednesday, December 21, 2011 12:51 To: simh@trailing-edge.com Subject: Re: [Simh] Initializing disks under RT11 (Ken Hall) I just tried this under both RT v4 and v5.3, and it works fine on a stock release. However, if you either (a) fail to write the bad block table or (b) attach an RL01-sized file to a drive that's declared to be an RL02, rather than AUTOSIZE, RT will get very confused, and the INIT will fail. /Bob On 12/21/2011 12:00 PM, simh-requ...@trailing-edge.com wrote: > Initializing disks under RT11 (Ken Hall) _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list Simh@trailing-edge.com http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list Simh@trailing-edge.com http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
