Hi, You might want to check out what I have done for the B5500 and PDP10.
http://sky-visions.com/burroughs/xiii/ Are the files that will rebuild MCP XIII from source, including build jobs. The install and load TOPS 10 5.03 or 6.03 you can find the simH init files here: http://sky-visions.com/dec/tops10.shtml http://sky-visions.com/dec/tops503/ http://sky-visions.com/dec/tops603/ These scripts use simH expect send to drive the simulators. Rich > So far I've got Multics, V7 and BSD4 running on SIMH in Google Cloud > Platform (GCP). I'm packaging some of these up into more turnkey > images and scripts so that more people can easily play with these > Grand Olde Operating Systemes. > > My end goal is a script that can be run on your local computer that > creates the cloud instance, installs and upgrades the OS, compiles > SIMH for the target HW, and boots the guest OS, all without any > needed input. I've got everything EXCEPT how to kick the OS boot in > the OS bootloader(s). > > My problem is that I probably haven't spent enough time with the docs > to figure out how to feed scripts "past" SIMH and into the > bootloaders. > > I'd also love to be able to inject commands into the SIMH process > through the API, but that's a different story. > > For example, the PDP-11 V6 boot looks like this: > > test-pdp11:~$ !80simh-master/BIN/pdp11 dboot.ini PDP-11 simulator > V4.0-0 Current git commit id: d40268d1Disabling XQ@ > Now how do I get scripted input into the simulator so that I can give > the bootloader the "unix" filename at the @ prompt? I have the same > problem with the Multics bootloader, too. > Clearly I'm not being smart this week. > Ideas? > --tep -- ========================================================================== Richard Cornwell [email protected] http://sky-visions.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richard-cornwell-991076107 ========================================================================== _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
