PDP-11 bootstraps
Disk 0
I know the octal data is correct, but I'm not sure about the mnemonics and the description.
Address | Data | Mnemonic | Description |
---|---|---|---|
1000 | 012700 | MOV #177406,R0 | Move the top of the address of the controller into r0 |
1002 | 177406 | (constant) | |
1004 | 012710 | MOV #177400,(R0) | Move 177400 into 177406 |
1006 | 177400 | (constant) | |
1010 | 012740 | MOV #5,-(r0) | Move 5 into 177404 |
1012 | 000005 | (constant) | |
1014 | 105710 | TSTB (R0) | Test byte at 177404 |
1016 | 100376 | BPL 1014 | Jump backward if positive |
1020 | 005007 | CLR PC | Jump to zero |
Disk n
This bootstrap will boot from any disk in a daisy-chained multi-drive configuration. Memory location octal 1006 contains the unit number, as follows:
Value | Unit |
---|---|
020000 | Unit 1 |
040000 | Unit 2 |
060000 | Unit 3 |
100000 | Unit 4 |
120000 | Unit 5 |
140000 | Unit 6 |
160000 | Unit 7 |
Address | Data | Mnemonic | Description |
---|---|---|---|
1000 | 012700 | MOV #177406, R0 | Store the address of the Word Count register in r0 |
1002 | 177406 | (constant) | (Which is 177406) |
1004 | 012760 | MOV xxxxxx, 000004(R0) | Store the disk ID number in the Disk Address register |
1006 | xxxxxx | (disk ID number) | The disk number goes here. |
1010 | 000004 | (index) | |
1012 | 012700 | MOV #177406, R0 | Store the addresss of the Word Count register in r0 |
1014 | 177406 | (constant) | (Which is 177406) |
1016 | 012710 | MOV #177400, (R0) | Store 177400 into the Word Count register, |
1020 | 177400 | (constant) | meaning that octal 400 words are to be read. |
1022 | 012740 | MOV #000005, -(R0) | Store 5 into the Control Status register |
1024 | 000005 | (constant) | selecting the function "read" with 4, and "go" with 1 |
1026 | 105710 | TSTB (R0) | Test the Control Status Register (upper) byte |
1030 | 100376 | BPL *-1 | Repeat if it's positive, that is Control Ready is cleared |
1032 | 005007 | CLR PC | If not, clear the Program Counter (essentially, jump to 0) |
