After successfully making bootable disks for my Model 4 earlier today, I've turned my attention to making a set of bootable LDOS disks from the images at the Tim Mann Misosys site.
My first attempt failed. Every image when being written had errors under Imagedisk.
I had made blank DMK images under SDLTRS and backed up the contents of the JV1 images to them. That didn't work.
So... I decided to replicate what worked this morning.
I used the instructions on making a double density bootable disk, omitting the double density bits to make a new single density master. Basically, doing a file by file copy.
I also made a double density master, while I was at it.
I'll bring the images over to my 5150 and try writing them later tonight.
So, stay tuned for the results.
