[cctalk] Altos 386 series 1000 installation disks & tape

Hello there, Earlier this December I got an Altos 386 series 1000 with lots of documentation and some installation floppy disks and one tape. I must say that it's an amazing machine! I'd like to reinstall the os but I have two problems: 1. It can not access the floppy drive. I tried it with another one, but still no joy. Does anyone have any schematics of the motherboard? I ordered a new floppy controller but in case the controller is not the faulty piece I'll need some schematics to track the problem. 2. I could clone some of the floppy disks on another computer but not all of them. I also found that the tape is overwritten with something else. Does anyone have these installation media? I'm missing sdx v3.6s0, aom menu shell v 3.0s2, Altos system v rts upd V5.3es2 and the tape Altos system v rts v5.3eT2 (utilities). Anyone know how to contact the Altos folks? Maybe they still have and are kind to share the installation media and the schematics. I have cloned Altos system v rts v5.3es2 (root), Altos multiview 1.6.2s0 two disks and the HDD. Btw, none of the Linux filesystem modules could not mount the hdd, therefore I created one based on fuse. If anyone needs such a thing you can find the srcs here : https://github.com/bog-dan-ro/altos . Happy new year! Yours, BogDan. P.S. I contacted Al from bitsavers, and my floppy disks clones will land to his collection (http://bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/bits/Altos/386-series/) P.S.' Al's tape image clone has a strange tar like format, does anyone know what's the exact format? I'd like to create a tool to extract them...
