Yup...newfs is the one magical program that can solve all of Windows'

You need a DEQNA (old board but works) or DELQA newer board.

VMS is the primary OS, most any version and Ultrix (dec unix) then there
is NetBSD if you can get around the media problem for initial install.
FYI: you really need a tk50 or TK70 tape or compatable CDrom as
those are the to most likely non networked transport medias.

I just inherited a pair of MV-II . they are mostly complete, I seem to be
missing the console serial adaptor with the switches for one of them...
also does anyone have a MV-II ethernet board? or any other interesting
MV-II boards :) I'd love to get these up and running. I got a SCSI card
fo unknown manufacture (haven't id'd it yet) and am hoping to get this
beastie up and running soon :) what OS can I run on it???

Well, faster than what and more capable thant what?

Good luck as far as I know 2.11 didn't have native support for SCSI. Not
to say you couldn't write your own driver. However when 2.11 was current
SCSI was still called SASI and likely not found on most PDP-11s.

I'm using OE (outlook express) it sees it as likely RTF not HTML.
HTML is something PINE dislikes but RTF or other MIME types are
possible.

When I view YOUR post the fonts on the system here change.
if I set them back and go back to this message the same thing happens.
Usually it's HTML or RTF messages that do that.

Well, since the Mac Quadra 700 is of 91 vintage, it looks like I can ask
questions about it...
I found this on teamexcess.com -
ST15150N Seagate 3.5" 4.3GB 1.6" Half Height SCSI H-ST-15150N
Narrow 50-pin
Assuming the jumpers are set correctly, should this work internally in a
Quadra 700?
thanks,
