Test 6 means that your SCSI bus is (most likely) unterminated, and
test 1 is indicating that you don't have your Ethernet terminated.
Remember, the little recessed switch between the BNC and the AUI selects
which Ethernet connector to use.

Can you type "B DKA0" (or whatever your OS resides on) and see if
you still get the UNXINT?
Tim.
Please forgive me group. I sent another personal note to the entire list.
I'll practice my cutting and pasting this weekend.

Wonderful, wonderful. Glad you had a good time. I can hardly wait to meet
you guys sometime.
I am hard pressed to give DG NOVAs away. I am so isolated in Kitchener. I
love my hometown,
but you, you get to drive a bit and park in the might TRW's parking lot.
Yikes, a dream come
true.
You keep enjoying the Valley ya here.
I hope to have my Computer Room done in the next month. That is a room
wherein all of the
accessories and furniture (except the chairs and lamps - so far) are made

parts.
Up the old computer eh.

There are also other quirks that can lead to test 6 giving an error -
bad termination is the most common. Can you do a SHOW DEV and see
what comes up?

Terminating will help #1, and in between SHOW DEV and simplifying the
hardware configuration you'll probably fix #6.

SYSTEM. The VMS FAQ tells you how to break in, while physically present
at the console, if you've lost the SYSTEM password.

Huh? My 7945s are 55MB hard drives period, there's nothing removable
unless you have a screwdriver. OK, if you look inside there is
probably a ~60MB Priam/Vertex MFM/ST-506 i/f drive, and one or two
printed-circuit boards to speak CS/80 over HP-IB out one side, and MFM
out the other to talk to the drive. There is a 68xx playing
microcontroller to run the drive (on the board with the HP-IB
connector) but it wasn't sold as a computer and I'm pretty sure it's
intended to be user-programmable.

It's not a rumor, the source code for GEM has been released and is available on the unofficial CP/M web site. The heritage of this source code was unknown a few days ago, it was not known either if it would compile, or how close [or far] it was related to the shipping products. But it's a starting point.
G'day,
The thing consists of tape feeder (model 1227-2001) and punch itself (model
1215-1001). It was manufactured by VEB Rechenelektronik
Meiningen/Zella-Mehlis, GDR.

That attention line isn't necessary unless someone else picks up the mail,
which is generally not the case. I get a lot of literature, though, and am
not always the first to see and subsequently hide (lose) it. This way it's
more likely to get my immediate attention.
thanks,
