- Version 2.4 of p11 - the Begemot PDP-11 emulator - is available on
- ftp.fokus.gmd.de:/pub/cats/usr/harti/p11. This release supports the following
- platforms:
-
- FreeBSD 4.0
- Sparc-Solaris 2.[5678]
- Redhat-Linux
-
- It will possibly work on FreeBSD [23].* and other Linux variants.
- To build it you need libbegemot (avalaible in the same location), gcc and
- gmake. Previous versions also built on BSD/OS and SunOS.
-
- A version of the emulator is run on one of our machines. Try one of the
- following (it may not always be available):
-
- telnet scotty.fokus.gmd.de 10000
- telnet scotty.fokus.gmd.de 10001
- telnet scotty.fokus.gmd.de 10002
- telnet scotty.fokus.gmd.de 10003
-
- to get connected to one of the four available terminals. If telnet
- connects, but this terminal is currently in use, you'll get a short
- message. You should then try connecting to another port. Once you are
- online, log into 2.11BSD with username and password guest/guest1.
-
- Don't forget to logout, before disconnecting with telnet.
-
- Note, that there is an IP connection to the host machine, but not to the
- outside world (this is due to IP routing restrictions in out network).
-
- The current implementation emulates a KDJ11A, one or more RLV12, RHV??, RK11
- disk controllers, a boot ROM, one or more KL11A controllers, on FreeBSD and
- Linux a DEQNA ethernet adapter, a read-only TM11 tape and a standard line
- printer interface. A boot ROM (with source code) to boot from RL/RK and RP
- discs is included.
-
- On a 450MHz Pentium-III a full 'make world install' of 2.11BSD takes around 6
- hours, which is several times faster than a real PDP. Floating point
- performance is even higher.
-
- The emulator hast tested with 2.11BSD, RSX and RSX-PLUS, RT V4, V[4567]-Unix
- and XXDP.
-
- Enjoy,
- Harti B. Brandt
