How do I mount ISO files in Tru64?
I have ‘disk.vdisk’ in DKA0 which contains the Tru64 system and in DKA100 I have an ISO file of a Data CD (non-bootable, just some files I want to open from Tru64, Open Genera 2 actually
Which of the devices in Tru64 is the DKA100?

Inside a “hptru64unix.cfg” file there’re sections for DKA200 and DKA300; you may edit them.
DKA100 is the main disk — file “disk.vdisk”

Sorry, but I think you didn’t get my question or I didn’t get your answer!
I want to know which file in /dev or /dev/disk inside the Tru64 system, represents the DKA100 of the emulator?
And if I have an ISO file in DKA100, how do I mount it in Tru64?

Sorry for misunderstanding.. /dev/rz1, as I know.
And here are instructions for mounting

Dear friend.
Do you know if it is possible to run graphic desktop environment on this emulator?
For example by using an X-server for Windows like Xming or other.
Let’s me know, plase.
Have a nice day|

As far as I know, it’s impossible…

Hello again!
Can’t it be done at all?
Can’t we run xorg in personal-alpha without display and redirect the display to the host machine, or read the display information from the host machine?

P.S.: My purpose is to run Open Genera 2 so I want to know if that is possible and if you can help me?

Device busy.
