  • Programatically creating Unix disk images

    Are there any Windows tools that can create PDP11 Unix v5/v6/v7
    disk images and import files into them. Non-interactively so I can
    create a batch file of actions to do and just double-click to build
    and disk image in one go.

    I've been using putr for doing this to create RT11 images, a batch file
    with:
    putr < listofcommands.txt
    with listofcommands.txt containing for example
    init jghdisk.dsk /rx24 /rt11
    mount rt: jghdisk.dsk
    copy files\kbdtest.sav rt:kbdtst.sav
    ...etc...
    dismount rt:
    exit

    I'm looking for something similiar so I can batch run to create a
    disk image automagically without having to do everything manually.
