Has anyone managed to do an install of some (any) version of NetBSD on
simh's 11/780 simulator? I've found instructions for the MicroVAX 3900
simulator, but not the 780..
So far, I've discovered one can do:
load -o boot.mop 0
start 200
to get the bootloader running, but I'm not quite sure what to do about
install media. I've tried booting from a miniroot.fs, and vaxcd.iso
(from version 1.6.2), to no avail.
My ultimate goal is to get NetBSD booting on my real 11/780, which
NetBSD claims is supported, but want to try this on the simulator
first.
