DEC Professional DECNA

[dittman]

What operating systems for the Pros supported the DECNA card?

I'd have to confirm but would it not be MS DOS for DEC Professional, CP/M for DEC Professional? Maybe VENIX for DEC.

 

[dittman]

MSDOS doesn't run on the DEC Pros and I'm there's no mention of any networking support for CP/M on the Z80 card in the brief doc I saw for it (and I'd really be surprised if DEC bothered with any kind of Ethernet support for CP/M on the Pros).

 

[billdeg]

Oh. It must be RT11 or RSTS then? I was mistaken, thought you were talking about something else.

The standard OS was P/OS but RT-11 and Venix were available (and CP/M with the Z80 board).

By the way heir was a Intel 8088 co processor DEC Professional.
