Hi,
Thanks. Big success and then a new problem.
I took out the top three levels
of my cards and reseated them. There's a lot of
corrosion on the contacts so it inserts only with
difficulty. Anyway it booted up ONCE and
I saw lines indicating that RSX11-Mplus was
starting up. It went through an initialization
script and then I/O to the console terminal died.
I have not been able to get any more output from the
console. So my next problem is to figure out what
happened.
Progress is being made. One big good thing, at least
my disk has to be working.

For a decent Qbus primer, see here:

It seems to be loading quite slowly ATM. Good luck.
