PDP-11 benchmark, from tape
This page describes booting the benchmark from a TM11 tape drive.
- benchmark.tap tape image including tape headers
- benchmark.tap-no-headers tape image without tape headers, use "dd if=benchmark.tap-no-headers of=/dev/tm0 bs=512" to write it to tape
This is the source code of a bootloader for the benchmark.tap on this website. Below it is this list of words to toggle into the frontpanel. Only tested with simh sofar.
It came from gunkies.org.
After it loaded the boot loader from tape, the PDP will loop. Abort the loop and continue at address 0 ("g 0").set cpu 11/70 4M attach tm0 benchmark.tap ; then paste the deposit commands shown at the bottom
