|
|
||||||
|
We can run [! Nova RDOS](/1970s/1972/nova-rdos) on the SIMH Eclipse emulator. First, we need to download the ! Nova RDOS kit for SIMH Eclipse emulator.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Downloads
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can download the needed kit from the ["SIMH Legacy" website](http://simh.trailing-edge.com/):

|
## Using ! Nova RDOS
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
:::tip
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you have not already installed SIMH Eclipse emulator, see [the VirtualHub Setup tutorial on how to do so](https://setup.virtualhub.eu.org/simh-eclipse/) on Linux and Windows.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
:::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Extract the kit you downloaded. Inside you will find a file called `zrdos75.dsk`. Create a folder somewhere to store the files for this VM, and move the file named `zrdos75.dsk` into it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now we will create a config file for our VM. Create a text file called `eclipse.ini` with the following content in the VM folder:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```ini
|
||||||
|
att dkp0 zrdos75.dsk
|
||||||
|
set tti dasher
|
||||||
|
boot dkp0
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![eclipse.ini](./nova-rdos-simh-eclipse-1.webp)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now open a terminal and move to the VM folder. Run the following command to start the emulator:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
eclipse
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![eclipse](./nova-rdos-simh-eclipse-2.webp)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After the emulator starts, press enter when asked for filename. When asked for date, enter it in `MM/DD/YY` format. For example, enter `04/13/74`. 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`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now you can enter `LIST` to see a list of files available:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
That's it! We used ! Nova RDOS on SIMH Eclipse emulator. We can create a shell script to make it easy to launch the VM.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Linux
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Create a file called `Eclipse-RDOS.sh` with the following content:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
#!/bin/bash
|
||||||
|
eclipse
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now make the file executable:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
chmod +x Eclipse-RDOS.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/1972/nova-rdos/#manuals) on the [main ! Nova RDOS page](/1970s/1972/nova-rdos/) to learn how to use it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Windows
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Create a file called `Eclipse-RDOS.bat` with the following content:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
eclipse
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now you can start the VM by double-clicking the shell script. See the [manuals section](/1970s/1972/nova-rdos/#manuals) on the [main ! Nova RDOS page](/1970s/1972/nova-rdos/) to learn how to use it.
