Re: [Simh] NetBSD5.0.2



 Deborah,

Thank you for your message.
Are you giving the emulator enough memory? NetBSD is growing. "set cpu 512m"
I tried a different approach - I copied the hard disc image and tried an upgrade. I had a few errors to do with groups, but basically it worked and I now have NetBSD/Vax 5.0.2 working. I am hoping that Perl works better than it did running 3.1 - it kept core dumping on that (I have no idea if the problem was with Perl, the compiler that built Perl, with NetBSD, with Simh or any combination of the above).

I am running with 64MB of RAM to the guest VAX, perhaps I should up that.

Having said that, thanks so much for the boot script, I will give that a go and keep you informed

-Nigel
