Hi
Well lots fun with the 11/94 project. In fact its become an 11/84
and 11/94 project.
After following Sherlock Holmes advice "when you have eliminated
everything else.Whats left however unlikely is the answer" I
discovered the RX211 needed to be in CDEF and not ABCD. Why did I not
know that? Well I can only put it down to the fact all of the UNIBUS
options I ever worked with were hex modules.
Next fascinating fact. You can switch between being an 11/84 and an
11/94. Although one box has three Qbus slots and the other (11/84) has
four. If you put an 11/84 CPU in slot 1 and a MSV11-J (PMI) in 2 or 3
it does its startup tests and goes into the monitor screen.
If you try to boot the RX02 in 11/84 mode you get
(the drive does get accessed - there's a nice healthy clonk)
Trying DY0
Error 101
Unexpected trap to location 114

In 11/94 mode it stops at the same point but does not give the error
message.
Comments gentlemen please
