[HECnet] RSTS/E is really picky

So:

Pack cluster size is not 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 or 64.
PC=120324 PS=030344 OV=000006 M5=004000 M6=004200 SP=041240
R0=000026 R1=143161 R2=143161 R3=000000 R4=000000 R5=041350

The disk should be around ~512M.   I created a 500M disk.

Disk? DU0
Pack ID? 0
Pack cluster size <16>?
MFD cluster size <16>?
SATT.SYS base <30530>?
Pre-extend directories <NO>?
PUB, PRI, or SYS <SYS>?
[1,1] cluster size <16>?
[1,2] cluster size <16>?
[1,1] and [1,2] account base <30530>?
Date last modified <YES>?
New files first <NO>?
Read-only <NO>?
Patterns <3>? 0
Erase Disk <YES>? YES
Proceed (Y or N)? Y

Unless the partitioning is written to the first block and not done through controller NVRAM...I can't see the reasoning.

Back to trying RSX-11M 4.8.   That's 100M and doubtful it'll complain.
