I have an MFM drive emulator, and was wondering if it's possible or practical to perhaps load some of the boot disk images from the pidp-11 onto the SD card and boot them on the PDP-11/23
Has anyone attempted this before? Or failing that, are there images of BSD or System V that I could somehow put onto the emulator, connect it to the system, and expect it to boot from it? I'm pretty hazy on the whole boot process, but have the system up and running to the point where it needs a boot device...
Any input would be appreciated! Basically, I'm trying to go from the ROM boot prompt to a running system.
Cheers,
Dave
