Jerome Fine replies:

Prior to V5.00 of RT-11, DEC sent out patch files to
update the old versions - as far as I know.

Thus there may not have been exact definitions of releases
not on the major versions. I am fairly sure that some files
for V02C and V03B exist, but it depends on if you want
a pure set of files for these two versions or just something
that works.

PLUS, is there a specific reason why you are asking about
versions from the 1970s?

I myself am attempting to find these old RT-11 distributions
so that they can be archived. In particular, I would like
RK05 images so that they are one single file, but floppy
images will also be great. In addition, even a directory
listing from an RK05 would then help, but please try to
include the VOLUME / OWNER information as well.

Some images of RT-11 distributions are at:

Sincerely yours,
