Oh, one thing that many here do not seem to have caught on to with
regards to MSCP disk usage. Although
SIMH RQ supports specifying the disk type (e.g. SET RQn RA90) only a
few poorly-designed, and not so often used, operating systems care
what the disk type is set to. All the reasonable OS's treat it as a big
bunch of blocks.
