for RSTS/E V10.1 and I started investigations into fixing some Y2K issues

that I had found while tinkering.

14+
I've included a prebuilt system disk image that supports DECnet and LAT
15+
in the prebuilt folder, along with sample configuration files for both
16+
SIMH PDP11 and John Wilson's E11 PDP-11 emulators. The accompanying
17+
README.md has a brief description on how to use this disk image.

In this directory you'll find a preconfigured and SYSGENed
2+
RSTS/E V10.1 system disk (as an RD53 drive due to file size
3+
limits under GitHub).
4+
5+
You'll need to download this and decompress it using ```bunzip2```
6+
into an empty directory.
7+
8+
The e11-rsts10.ini file and simh-rsts10.ini configuration files (for John
9+
Wilson's E11 and SIMH pdp11 emulators) may need to be edited to
10+
change/add disk file location specifications and specify the correct
11+
Ethernet interface for your system.
12+
13+
This system disk supports DECnet and LAT protocols (configured as
14+
DECnet node ```1.42``` with the name ```RSTS```).
15+
16+
The local system privileged account is PPN ```1,42``` with password
17+
```MANAGER```. Once you log in, you may wish to either disable
18+
DECnet startup using
19+
20+
```
21+
$ rename decnet$:dstart.com decnet$:dstart.dis
22+
```
23+
24+
or change the DECnet node number and name to suit your requirements
25+
(where x.y is the new DECnet address) using -
26+
27+
```
28+
$ ncp set exec state shut
29+
$ ncp def exec address x.y
30+
$ ncp def node x.y name RSTS
31+
$ run $shutup ! to reboot
32+
```
33+
34+
System startup is configured in the file ```[0,1]START.COM``` and you can
35+
use TECO or EDT to edit/view it from the privileged account.
36+
37+
PPN ```100,100``` is an account without a password that can run the original
38+
Adventure (as ported by Bob Supnik) using the ADV command.
39+
40+
If you want to create a non-privileged account for yourself, use something like
41+
42+
```
43+
$ create account /cluster=16 sy:[50,50]/name="Your Name"
44+
```
45+
46+
FORTRAN-IV, FORTRAN-77, BASIC-PLUS and BASIC-PLUS2 are also available,
47+
along with two version of Kermit (KERMIT and KRT).
48+
49+
Installation logs and files are in separate PPNs - all have the
50+
password set to MANAGER. Use the following command to see which one
51+
is which -
52+
53+
```
54+
$ show account /all
55+
```
