Talk:Installing 4.3 BSD Quasijarus on SIMH

Disk label I/O error

I get this:

=copy
cpu: uVAX II
From: tms(0,1)
To: ra(0,1)
ra: I/O error
ra(0,0,0,1): can't read disk label

Apparently this is due to running on a MicroVAX II rather than 3900. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 09:49, 6 September 2021 (CEST)

Looks like the disk / bus interface didn’t exist …

Next time post the ini and which emulator

I went ahead with a test from 3.8-1 from a million years ago... I didnt create the disk image, just attached the premade tape:
