<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Thanks, Marcus.<br>
<br>
Glad to hear it works on Slackware too. My first distro was
Slackware with SLS's X, if I remember correctly. I've installed
15, too, for X explorations last year. Very clean.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

Thanks Will, for an interesting video on setting up and using

I usually follow your blog post instructions, which are always
clear and accurate, but it was nice to have a video version.

You mention different systems you have tested it on, and I can
confirm it all works fine on Slackware Linux 15.0 and -current
with no problems.</div>

<b>Subject:</b> [TUHS] Posted a video on installing and
running v7</font>

<div><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Hi All,<br>
<br>
I got some questions recently about getting v7 working, so I
fired up OBS to create a video walkthrough of the install
process and first steps (it's basically following my v7 note,
but hey some folks dig video). The video is totally amateur
hour, but it was fun. I never get tired of logging in as dmr,
writing hello.c, running cc, running hello and watch the magic
of<br>
<br>
hello, world<br>
<br>
appear on "screen".<br>
<br>
As a reminder - the note (and thus, the video) walks the user
through installing OpenSIMH (including pdp11), building a tape
image, installing to disk from tape, booting off the disk,
building and using a DZ-11 as a telnet listener on 16 lines,
adding a user, running learn, and piddly stuff like setting
baud, delays, and such. Not a lot of hand-holding, but some.<br>
<br>
When I get around to it, I'll probably update the note to add
additional test environments (I'm pretty sure it works
anywhere OpenSIMH does, but some folks like to see there
system or one kinda like it in the list of tested systems).
I'm running LMDE5 and Debian 12 Bookworm these days, so I know
they work there in addition to pretty much any Linux Mint, MX
Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS, etc.<br>
<br>
I'm still in awe of Hayle and Ritchie's Setting Up Unix -
Seventh Edition as the basis of my note - 44 y.o. and
counting... for holding up so well.<br>
