# How to install ! Data General AOS on Wild Hare Nova emulator?
|
||||
|
||||
![Wild Hare Nova emulator with ! Data General AOS](./dg-aos-wh-3.webp)
|
||||
|
||||
We can run [! Data General AOS](/1970s/1976/dg-aos) on the Wild Hare Nova emulator. First, we need to download the ! Data General AOS disk image.
|
||||
|
||||
## Downloads
|
||||
|
||||
You can download the disk image needed to run ! Data General AOS on the Wild Hare Nova emulator from the [Wild Hare Legacy Preservation Website website](http://www.novasareforever.org/):
|
||||
|
||||
- [! Data General AOS disk image](http://www.novasareforever.org/archive/public/wh/simh/disks/DZP.6067.AOS.raw)
|
||||
|
||||
## Using ! Data General AOS
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
|
||||
If you have not already installed Wild Hare Nova emulator, see [the VirtualHub Setup tutorial on how to do so](https://setup.virtualhub.eu.org/wh-nova/) on Linux and Windows.
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Create a folder somewhere to store the files for this VM and move the disk image you just downloaded into it. Now we will create a config file for our VM. Create a text file called `nova.ini` with the following content in the VM folder:
|
||||
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
set CPU Eclipse_S/140
|
||||
set PTR enable
|
||||
set PTP enable
|
||||
set PLT enable
|
||||
set LPT enable
|
||||
set DSK disable
|
||||
set DEP disable
|
||||
set DKP enable
|
||||
set DZP enable
|
||||
set TTI1 enable
|
||||
set TTO1 enable
|
||||
set ALM enable
|
||||
set TTI bs swap
|
||||
set TTO bs
|
||||
dep TTO time 200
|
||||
set TTI1 bs swap
|
||||
set TTO1 bs
|
||||
dep TTO1 time 200
|
||||
set RTC MIPSsec=5
|
||||
set DZP0 6067
|
||||
attach DZP0 DZP.6067.AOS.raw
|
||||
deposit DZP stime 1000
|
||||
deposit DZP rtime 1000
|
||||
attach TTI1 40000
|
||||
attach ALM 40001
|
||||
boot DZP0
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
![nova.ini](./dg-aos-wh-1.webp)
|
||||
|
||||
Now open a terminal and move to the VM folder. Run the following command to start the emulator:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
nova
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
![nova](./dg-aos-wh-2.webp)
|
||||
|
||||
When prompted `DISK UNIT NAME? `, type `DPF0` and press enter. When asked for device code and system pathname, just press enter without typing anything.
|
||||
|
||||
When asked for date, enter it in `MM/DD/YY` format. For example, enter `04/13/76`. Keep the year in 1970s or 80s, to avoid any issues. Similarly, when asked for time, enter it in `HH:MM:SS` format. For example, enter `12:55:31`. You will be asked if you want to override default specs. Just press enter to accept the defaults.
|
||||
|
||||
You will get a `)` prompt. Run the following commands:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
CHAR/NAS/CPL=166
|
||||
SEARCH :util : :MACROS :PER
|
||||
SUPERUSER ON
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The prompt will change to `*)`. Type `UP` and press enter to start ! Data General AOS. Press enter a few times till you get a `)` prompt.
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can run `SUPERUSER ON` and then `FILESTATUS` to list all the files available on the disk.
|
||||
|
||||
![List of files in ! Data General AOS](./dg-aos-wh-3.webp)
|
||||
|
||||
That's it! We used ! Data General AOS. To exit super user mode, type `BYE` and press enter. To shutdown the system, run `BYE` again. You will be asked twice if you really want to shutdown. Type `YES` and press enter both times to shutdown. Don't worry, it won't harm your children in any way.
|
||||
|
||||
We can create a shell script to make it easy to launch the VM.
|
||||
|
||||
### Linux
|
||||
|
||||
Create a file called `DG-AOS.sh` with the following content:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
#!/bin/bash
|
||||
nova
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now make the file executable:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
chmod +x DG-AOS.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can start the VM using the shell script. For example, on KDE you can right-click the file and choose `Run in Konsole` or on GNOME, where you can right-click the file and choose `Run as executable`. The VM will start.
|
||||
|
||||
See the [manuals section](/1970s/1976/dg-aos/#manuals) on the [main ! Data General AOS page](/1970s/1976/dg-aos/) to learn how to use it.
|
||||
|
||||
### Windows
|
||||
|
||||
Create a file called `DG-AOS.bat` with the following content:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
nova
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now you can start the VM by double-clicking the shell script. See the [manuals section](/1970s/1976/dg-aos/#manuals) on the [main ! Data General AOS page](/1970s/1976/dg-aos/) to learn how to use it.
