I'm trying it out, but I can't seem to get past the "Please type the date and time:". Does anybody know the format that it expects to keep from dropping into the debugger?
I'm assuming that it should be getting the date and time from the network but that doesn't seem to be working either, although I'm not using a dedicated host like in the article. I'll do further exploration on a dedicated machine at a later date.
- ScottBurson 15y agoYou tried "MM/DD/YYYY hh:mm:ss"? Uh, maybe add " PDT" or whatever is appropriate for your timezone. (It's been a couple of years since I booted my LispM, but I used to know how to do this :-)
- kruhft 15y agoI tried your format, and every time I get Error: Unable to set calendar clock TIME:SET-CALENDAR-CLOCK Arg 0 (TIME:NEW-TIME): 354054620 and then drop into a debugger. Are there any steps I could do when it can't set the time to get the rest of the system to boot? Edit: the emulator is outputting: arithmeticexception; file stub/output10 line 215 when I enter the time, so there must be an emulation error of some sort.
- ScottBurson 15y agoAre you typing the year as "2012" rather than "12"? The universal time you have shown here decodes as 3/22/1911, which is close enough to 100 years ago to make me wonder. Either that, or you copied the display contents by hand and left off a digit.
- cualunque 15y agoIt seems not to be Y2K safe. Try changing your date to something around the '80s, having done that I didn't get the "Please type the date..." prompt.
