M9312 PROM Files

The following files are source, listing, and object images in Intel HEX format for the DEC PDP-11 M9312 Bootstrap module (and other compatible sockets such as the 11/44 UBI).

All source files are a faithful representation of the contents of the respective PROM.

Two additional images have been added that are non-standard:

23-765B9 - (yes I know ...B9 is not actually correct per DEC nomenclature) is a rewrite of the standard DD TU58 boot PROM. The standard DEC PROM is completely broken when it comes to supporting a non-standard CSR address other than 776500. 23-765B9 fixes this issue.
23-ZZZA9 - fits in an M9312 boot PROM socket, but is not a boot PROM per se. When started, it runs the M9312 diagnostics forever, checking both the CPU and the low 28K of memory using the standard console PROM diagnostic tests (see the 23-248F1 listing). It has proven to be very useful when debugging old PDP-11s when not enough works to boot diagnostics from a disk/tape (or you don't yet actually have a disk or tape).

An image of the TMSCP boot device 23-E39A9 has been found! Thanks to Jack Rubin for sending me a real device to read (21-Feb-2020).

Images of the DEUNA/DELUA netboot devices 23-E32A9/E33A9 have been found! Actual devices have been read (24-Feb-2020).

The tools to assemble/build a PROM image are available in tools.tar.gz. Refer to the included README.txt file for further information on usage.
