3B2/400 Simulator Usage
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
3B2/700 Simulator Devices
|
||||
-------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
To boot the 3B2 simulator into firmware mode, simply type:
|
||||
The following devices are simulated. The SIMH names for the simulated
|
||||
devices are given in parentheses:
|
||||
|
||||
sim> BOOT
|
||||
|
||||
You will be greeted with the message:
|
||||
|
||||
FW ERROR 1-01: NVRAM SANITY FAILURE
|
||||
DEFAULT VALUES ASSUMED
|
||||
IF REPEATED, CHECK THE BATTERY
|
||||
|
||||
FW ERROR 1-02: DISK SANITY FAILURE
|
||||
EXECUTION HALTED
|
||||
|
||||
SYSTEM FAILURE: CONSULT YOUR SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION UTILITIES GUIDE
|
||||
|
||||
NVRAM and Time of Day can be saved between boots by attaching both
|
||||
devices to files.
|
||||
|
||||
sim> ATTACH NVRAM <nvram-file>
|
||||
sim> ATTACH TOD <tod-file>
|
||||
|
||||
If you have no operating system installed on the hard drive, on
|
||||
subsequent boots you will instead see the message
|
||||
|
||||
SELF-CHECK
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
FW ERROR 1-02: DISK SANITY FAILURE
|
||||
EXECUTION HALTED
|
||||
|
||||
SYSTEM FAILURE: CONSULT YOUR SYSTEM ADMINISTRATION UTILITIES GUIDE
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Once you see the `SYSTEM FAILURE` message, this is actually an
|
||||
invisible prompt. To access firmware mode, type the default 3B2
|
||||
firmware password `mcp`, then press Enter or carriage return.
|
||||
|
||||
You should then be prompted with:
|
||||
|
||||
Enter name of program to execute [ ]:
|
||||
|
||||
Here, you may type a question mark (?) and press Enter to see a list
|
||||
of available firmware programs.
|
||||
|
||||
Booting UNIX SVR3 on the 3B2/400
|
||||
--------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
UNIX System V UNIX is the only operating system available for the 3B2.
|
||||
To boot UNIX, attach the first disk image from the 3B2 "Essential
|
||||
Utilities" distribution.
|
||||
|
||||
sim> ATTACH IFLOPPY <floppy-image>
|
||||
sim> BOOT
|
||||
|
||||
Once you reach the `SYSTEM FAILURE` message, type `mcp` to enter
|
||||
firmware mode. When prompted for the name of a program to boot, enter
|
||||
`unix`, and confirm the boot device is `FD5` by pressing Enter or
|
||||
carriage return.
|
||||
|
||||
Enter name of program to execute [ ]: unix
|
||||
Possible load devices are:
|
||||
|
||||
Option Number Slot Name
|
||||
---------------------------------------
|
||||
0 0 FD5
|
||||
|
||||
Enter Load Device Option Number [0 (FD5)]:
|
||||
|
||||
Installing SVR3 on the 3B2/400
|
||||
------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
To install SVR3 to the first hard disk, first, attach a new image
|
||||
to the IDISK0 device:
|
||||
|
||||
sim> ATTACH IDISK0 <hd-image>
|
||||
|
||||
Then, boot the file `idtools` from the "3B2 Maintenance Utilities -
|
||||
Issue 4.0" floppy diskette.
|
||||
|
||||
From `idtools`, select the `formhard` option and low-level format
|
||||
integrated disk 0. Parameters for the default 72MB hard disk are:
|
||||
|
||||
Drive Id: 5
|
||||
Number cylinders: 925
|
||||
Number tracks/cyl: 9
|
||||
Number sectors/track: 18
|
||||
Number bytes/sector: 512
|
||||
|
||||
After low-level formatting integrated disk 0, boot the file `unix`
|
||||
from the first diskette of the 3B2 "Essential Utilities" distribution,
|
||||
and follow the prompts.
