Working to restore a series 30 , looking for any spare boards ,cpu ,bic boards from a series 30/33Just putting it out there ,long shot i knowCheers,Grant?Sent from my Galaxy
I'm wondering how to do hard drive formatting, which is likely to be needed when working with emulated disks in David Gesswein's MFM emulator.
As far as I can tell, RT-11 can do this. At least I have a source code printout for such a formatter. But while I can find a hard drive image of RT V5 for Pro, I haven't found any floppy-bootable images. And I think it's a bit tricky to create one. I knew, long ago for V2...
Any suggestions? Any alternative sources for a formatter? I guess I really should consider typing in the core of that formatter and adding it to RSTS.

I have a nice ICL PERQ 2 T2 that I am going to start working with now.
First thing was to try to image the hard drive. It is a Micropolis 1303. It
spins up but when it reaches what I think the correct speed it immediately
spins down. Usually I think there would be a click and then the heads would
recalibrate. But there is no click and no head movement.
I really would like to make an image of the drive. What are your thoughts?
Are the heads sticking?
Some kind of solenoid that is not releasing the heads? Not properly up to
speed? (but it sounds like the speed is right)

Hi all,
Does anybody know if the old Compuserve discussion forums are
available anywhere now?
I'm specifically interested in the ones about HP Palmtops and cc:Mail.

Models SS-16, TEC-9900-SS, TR-9000-SS aka Technico/Rosse TR-9000-SS
"Super Star", or any other.
I think a couple of list members have indicated here or elsewhere in
the past that they had SS-16's at least.
Thanks for any help,

This is probably the wrong list to ask, but maybe somebody could
forward it to a more appropriate list.
I have several of my father's books on electrical engineering. If
anybody wants any of them, let me know.

Hello everybody,
Does anybody have any early versions of cc:Mail that they can share?
I have v. 6 (1996) and 8 (1997).
Am looking for versions from 1994/5.
