  I have some documents on my web site:

     http://sky-visions.com/burroughs/

  It is not that difficult. 
   
  If you need more info or have questions let me know. 

  Grab the .ini file, and cold start deck off my web site. Grab the
  tapes off Paul's site. Then just:

  b5500 xiii.ini

  sim> boot cr

  Follow Paul's instructions on loading the system. <esc> is the
  inquiry key. 

  Once the system is installed on disk, you can do.

  b5500 xiii.ini
  sim> det cr
  sim> boot dk

  To boot the disk.

  If you want I can put together a step by step how to.

   Yeah, forgot about that one. 

   CDC also distributed much of their systems with sources also.
   However I believe this stopped by the time of NOS, then source was
   only available on request.
