The Virtual OS museum has MS and IBM OS/2 versions listed pretty
comprehensively (which you can of course run locally):
https://virtualosmuseum.org/installation-list/
It includes some Citrix versions that OEM the main providers, too.
I have a couple of IBM OS/2 boxes (1.1 and maybe 1.2, I think) that I
can snap pictures of media from if you're interested; but there are
probably places like the Internet Archive that already have such
things:

Georgy,
One of the software disks that came with my 8:16, which I purchased in
March of 1984, has a printed label saying (with the "d" after 2.1.1 hand
written in blue ink):
<quote>
ATTACHE
MSDOS
REVISION: 2.1.1d SN 1850 48 TPI Date: 02/29/84
</quote>
Volume 5, Number 1 (Spring 1985) of "Where It's Att. Official Newsletter
of the First Attache/2001 User Group" lists the "Newest" FAUG Library
disk as "Attache MS-Dos 2.11e(x) System Disk FAUG211e(x). The latest
'unreleased' Otrona 8:16 master disk for MS-Dos. About to come out when
bankruptcy hit Otrona."
That same issue says that RAMDISK.SYS works only with 2.11e(x) and not
with earlier versions. Issue 5, Number 2 says that "211e(x)" "Includes
extensive new hard disk software."
Regards,
Bob
P.S. to Fred: My apologies for not knowing offhand if the MS-DOS version
is "two eleven e (x)" or "two one one e (x)". When I get my 8:16
running, I can check. Bob

Does anyone have a working copy of a bootable Otrona Attache MS-DOS
2.11d or 2.11e disk that they can copy and snail-mail to me? All of my
disks are giving a "Bad or missing Command Interpreter" error. I no
longer have another computer that reads/writes 5 1/4" IBM 360KB disks,
so I need a physical copy.
Please email me at feldman.r(a)comcast.net so we can arrange shipping (I
am in Chicago) and payment.
Thanks,
Bob Feldman
Gimix Documentation Needed!
I need the following Gimix documentation:
Intelligent 4 Port Serial Interface (24-0076A)
256K Memory Board (24-0082)
6809 CPU III Rev C (24-0066C). I have the manual for 24-0066B.
Thanks,
Please email me at directly if you have it (bitwiz(a)12bitsbest.com)
I've been working on this project for ages. It is not complete. It may never be complete. It is, however, finally in a state that I consider to be eminently usable. A "beta" or "soft opening" - there are absolutely some visibly unfinished areas. But, it can absolutely be used while I continue improving the typesetter and the indexer, polishing the presentation, and adding manuals for new systems.
http://www.typewritten.org/Manual/
Some folks were given access to previous development versions and asked not to share the URLs. If you were one of them, please transition to this URL instead; this one can be considered fully public.
ok
bear.
ps. this announcement was also sent to the VCFED forum and the TUHS mailing list
Hello everyone.
I am documenting early OS/2 releases (before 1992).
I am interested in all possible information about the released versions, photos of media, screenshots.
There is very little on the internet. For example, there is very little information about OEM versions of MS OS/2 1.x, as well as little information about OS/2 1.X localizations.
if you are the owner of the package/disks of versions 1.x, please let me know.
Best.regards.
–Georg
Does anyone have any HN482764G or other 250nS or faster 2764 EPROMs they
can let go of inexpensively?
I could use 4 or 5. I will generate the shipping label from here so you
don't have to worry about the shipping costs.
Thank you,
Mike
Take a look at OneROM - onerom.org - for a modern take on replacement for EPROMs
