Bootstraping a PDP-11 of Serial Line, How?
<OK, logically I can send the bootstrap for the RL02 drive over the seria

<in all those numbers. Therefore the question is, how should I format th
<file that I send to the PDP-11? I've tried formating it two different wa

11/73 does support RL02, I know I have one connected. When the /73
come up if the switches are set tight it will either boot straight away
or prompt for a boot.
If you send a formatted file it must look exactly like what you type right
