[Simh] VAX 780 & BSD 4.2

[Jason]

Thanks to Scotts help I have just gotten 4.2 to go into single user mode!

Here is my configuration file:

att rq0 42/miniroot
set rq1 dis
set rq2 dis
set rq3 dis
set lpt dis
set rl dis
set tq dis
set tu dis
set rp   dis
set ts dis
set tti 7b
set tto 7b
load -o .//42/srcsys/stand/bootra 0
d r10 9
d r11 0
run 2


The 42 directory contains the files from
http://www.tribug.org/pub/tuhs/4BSD/Distributions/4.2BSD/Per_Andersson/
<http://www.tribug.org/pub/tuhs/4BSD/Distributions/4.2BSD/Per_Andersson/> 

I'm 'assuming' the following mappings hold true...
ingress.tar -> tape2-file3
miniroot -> tape1-file3
new.tar -> tape2-file2
rootdump -> tape1-file4
src.tar -> tape2-file1b
srcsys.tar -> tape1-file5
usr.tar -> tape1-file6

I extracted the srcsys.tar to get the 'bootra' program.  Anyway here is the
output:
-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<

I'll try to recreate a 4.2 tape that I can read in the emu & reload the ra
disk.

Special Super-duper thanks to Scott Taylor again!
