Conference ·
OSTI ID:5331797

A technique has been devised for bootstrapping RSX-11S from read-only memories. This papers describes a method for storing an RSX-11S system into PROM, and then loading it into RAM for execution. A full 124 kW system was saved into 64 4Kb PROM. The bootstrap program necessary to load and execute the system is also described.
