Discussion of adapting these instructions to 22.1.4 has been occurring on the [cctalk mailing list](http://classiccmp.org/pipermail/cctalk/2020-March/052126.html).
## Getting PRIMOS
Two versions of PRIMOS are available from Bitsavers:
* [Rev 22.1.4](http://bitsavers.org/bits/Prime/primos_22.1.4.zip)
* [Rev 22.1.4](http://bitsavers.org/bits/Prime/primos_22.1.4.zip) [has issues]
* [Rev 22.1.4 repacked](https://yagi.h-net.org/m2214repack.tar.gz) [use this]
* [Rev 19.?](http://bitsavers.org/bits/Prime/pps/03_log.tape_I=boot_II=iptpal.tap.gz)
The Rev. 19 tape is a save from an installed system.
