New page

Generating a system on version 9 of the [[RSTS/E]] [[operating system]] is much, MUCH easier than on the earlier releases. This is largely because of all the scripts being rewritten in [[DCL]], and with that change, DEC has included more comprehensive and powerful install scripts.

As of this writing (May 2007) there are several methods of generating a RSTS/E system, depending on what hardware you have available.

As a general rule, it is not recommended that you generate a RSTS v9 system with under 128KiW of MOS or core memory, and less than 20 MiB of contiguous mass storage. If you are using an emulator, this is not a problem as your machine likely has a hundred times the maximum amount of memory addressable by any PDP-11. This is also a suggested method if you are generating a system for real PDP-11 hardware as it is generally faster and does not require physical distribution media(images will do just fine).
