[TUHS] H.J. Lu Bootable Root & Base System disks

[Jason Stevens]

It took me years of on and off to finally figure out what the heck a Tahoe even was.

Spoiler for anyone who wasn’t there when it happened it’s a Harris HCX-9.

The config file has this snippet:

GENERIC POWER 6/32 (HCX9)
With other bits that fit the bill in the source.  With that said I don’t think there is any system ROM or firmware dumps or did it use a writeable control store?

But then again there is some movement on an RT emulator and there is the 3b2 stuff so maybe there only needs to be a ‘push’…

I’m far too novice for that kind of thing.

No, but I'd like to see it run on a Tahoe (emulator).  Maybe my vote for
one of the most well known machines (due to BSD) that has seemingly
completely dissapeared off the face of the earth.  Happy to be proved
wrong.
