VM/370 Bob Abele Version 1.1

 

I wanted to generate a copy of Bob's version 1.1 and of course got stuck. I do not remember what I need to do when DDR runs out of tape.
?
Bob's instructions, in README_2.txt include:
?
5. in the telnet window you should see the prompt "ENTER CARD READER..."
? ? ? ? input 581 3420
? ? ? ? output 131 3330 VMREL6
? ? ? ? restore all
? ? ? ? (restore now takes about 2 minutes)
? ? ? ? input 582 3420
? ? ? ? output 132 3330 CPR6L0
? ? ? ? (restore takes another 2 minutes)
6. on Hercules:
? ? ? ? quit
?
When I get DDR IPL'd and the first tape processed, I have the following on the screen.
?

Never mind. The tapes do not have two EOT marks at the end of the DDR dump.
