I have confirmed I get the same result myself. Thanks for reporting! Will look into it soon. |
I have located the bad commit: 36be2f7 |
The title of this issue and the repro have two different root causes. I'm going to comment based on the title of the issue. I will follow up with comments on the higher-impact repro on a separate case. When I build with:
The following code removes the (low impact) "Non-existent device" message:

Thanks for checking, @jeffhhk. The mistake is that the simh configuration refers to |
Fixes GitHub issue PDP-10#2099.
Solution to this can be: Boot using tape dskdmp. At DSKDMP run: dskdmp bin It will respond with DSKDMP. You can from then on boot from disk. I am not sure why the older version of DSKDMP is still in the DSKDMP swap space. |
I haven't checked this, but I'm pretty sure what happens is that the tape DSKDMP writes itself to disk. So when DSKDMP BIN is run after that, it will write the new version that is supposed to be on disk. This became a problem because one more round of rebooting was introduced and the last reboot didn't invoke the new DSKDMP BIN. |
We should create a new dskdmp tape as soon as we’ve assemble DSKDMP from current sources. And use that from then on. Using the one with DSKDMP RPA6 anytime thereafter would presumably break DSKDMP disk boot again. |
There is an issue with dskdmp rp06 when dealing with emulators. The disk responds too quick and it ends up overwriting itself before it can finish loading. |
There is another issue #2140 for updating the bootstrap DSKDMP. Note that a new "ndskdmp.tape" is generated in the KS10 build. |
I followed the direction as best I could by running make
EMULATOR=simh
, and then./start
