[mod.protocols.tcp-ip] TFTP boot PROM loader.

hwb@MCR.UMICH.EDU.UUCP (12/23/86)

Does anyone around here have a TFTP loader for DEC PDP11 tapes images which
could be put into a PROM and which I could get? MACRO-11 assembler flavour
would be best.

Hans-werner,

I assume you want to get a pdp11 bytestring file (paper tape format) from some
server host to some pdp11 client.  SRI (the SURAN/packet radio project) has
the original of the loader we use on the 11 gateways, as well as loader-server
programs which run on some hosts.  No, it does not use TFTP, but it gets the
file from here to there, and runs it.

Have you checked for the MIT TFTP Boot server, which was posted on some source
mailing list in the past year?

    Lots of pointers, no solutions.
