I've got an SMC SuperDisk 2.1 disk (3.5" 1.44MB) EtherEZ driver disk that
came with a card. It's dated 4/8/95. It would take ages to get there by
post, but I can zip up the contents and put them on my website if you still
need it...

I've got a source listing of some version "toward the end of
its life" of the Vulcan kernel. Harris "wooed" me once (long
ago in a...) and let me keep a listing to have some light
reading back on the plane. But I have no manuals... Perhaps
a copy-swap? (The source listing is a pretty thick binder,
though...)

Wait never mind..it's up and running now after a few power cycles....and
I'm backing up everything to my pc.
Thanks to All, I WILL be asking more later...

the info, all), I've got it to work...kind of...When it starts it now says
"System IPL from Hard disk in progress". Then no more... I know the disk
booted before ...I could type garbage back when I was getting garbage
(about 4 times before it quit)... It would be great if you could send me a

Well, I'm not sure I agree about the relative importance of cables with
which to interface a hard disk. That's probably the one thing that makes a
computer compute fast enough to be useful.
First of all I'd try 9600 baud before anything else, since I believe that's
the default. I don't remember what the board switches do, but I can hunt
around for the manual and get back to you. I wouldn't use PCAW, as a
terminal, myself. I haven't had good luck with it. How about Hyperterminal
of Procomm. I've used both of those in connection with a PC and had better
luck than with PCAW, though I've had good luck using PCAW for file
transfers, etc.
This box was ostensibly a file server and probably contains VERY important
software, e.g. the MMMost (or whatever it was called) network OS, which
isn't around any longer. This box is capable of serving as a single-user
system, but if you still have the HDD, from which it should boot all by
itself if it hasn't been roached up, you might want to preserve it.
Well you're in luck . . . I got a phone interruption after which I thought
of a place to look for the manual...Oddly enough, that's where it was.
The manual says the "upper" four bits of the dip switch is used for baud
rate settings. The lower four bits (5,6,7,8) are unused except for position
8 which is reserved for diagnostics. Obviously, the one who wrote this
manual was on drugs. A closed switch is a zero.
The baud rates go from 19.2K down to 75, with ascending values from 0000 to
1000, remembering that a 0 means CLOSED. Switch 1 is the lsb.
I hope that helps you get it going!
If you need a boot diskette, maybe I can help you there as well.
Televideo, by the way, is still in business, so it's not inconceivable they
might be able to help too, if you ask them.

OKay VMS fans . . .
I have a couple of documents I don't need:
RA90/92 Users manual - Mangled, but readable, there is a little
useful information here.
VMS Liscense PAK's - Various liscence docs for VAX/VMS, TCP/IP,
DECNET & DW-MOTIF.
According to the Fine Print (tm), "This document does not constitute
a liscence" >:^P
Okay, okay, so its worthless, but maybe somebody out there would it as
a conversation piece. They got wet at one time, so they're not even
close to mint, but hey, they're the genuine article!
Either one for the cost of mailing it!

I use a TVI 925 with mine. I suppose it's possible to set it up for
something else, and perhaps that's what's happened.
I think my TVI is set for n-8-1. When you say no cables or conntectors, do
you mean for the internal HDD, or do you mean you have two HDC's?
What software is it you think you're missing?

Hello all you ten gallon hat wearing mo-fo's.
I've got a rather large rescue on my hands in Richardson, Texas. A
company there is donating a half ton of computers to the VCF and has about
a half ton more of varied interesting systems that they'd like to get rid
of.
If anyone is in the greater Dallas area and can lend a hand sometime next
week with transporting 14 large boxes of stuff to the airport then please
contact me via private e-mail. You will probably go away with something
to add to your own collection. I'll give you more details when you e-mail
me.

Hi all,
My VAX 11/750 finally arrived from TN (yeah!!!), and I am just starting
to sort through what I received... Perhaps this weekend I will get it
powered up (though I will have to insure my hottub doesn't start at the
same time and blow the main breaker :)
Are there suggestions from listland on procedure for powering up and
running the diagnostics? I have a box of tapes but I don't know what
they all are or do...
Does anyone have boards/documentation/fiche/printsets they would be
willing to give/sell/trade/loan to me? Contact me off-list, perhaps
I have stuff you are interested in also (I got a stack of spare boards
that I don't think I need)...
Thanks,
clint (the proud owner of a KW/KIPS computer!!!
Seagate probably describes these on their web site, else check
