I am trying to run an RK11 diagnostic and am stuck.
The diagnostic asks the user how many drives to test and I can get the input to work
Looking at the code, it is looking for digits and then cr.
But it is actually looking for #215, which is 0x8d. Which is CR with the high bit set. (It also looks for #377 del with HB set)
So what happens is that it just keeps reprompting
I don't see how that character ever gets into the system. I did 'set tti 8b' but it made no difference. I can post the relevant code if needed.
