I received a query today about how to copy one tape to another on a
Digital VT103. I've included the details from the original message
below. Does anyone know how to do this?
--quote--
We use a Digital VT103 unit to control one of our machines, the system
is fine for the application, but we only have one copy of the tape with
the boot program and application programs on.
The VT103 unit has two tape drives and I think you can copy from one to
the other it just a matter of knowing the correct commands, hence the
reason for this email. Therefore I would be most grateful for any
suggestions you could suggest for the commands required to copy from
drive 0 to drive 1, we have so far tried the following:
Note :- RT11FB.SYS = Boot program (I think)
i) COPY/BOOT RT11FB.SYS
TO: DD1
ii) COPY/SYS
FROM? DD0
TO? DD1
The second method kicks up the following: - PIP-F-FILE NOT FOUND

The Z8001 is the processor used in the M20 machine.

What is the "PDS Z8000"?

I recently came into a DEC LA34-AA, a.k.a., Decwriter IV (Thanks
Phil!), and have some questions.
I think I finally figured out how to load paper into the tractorfeed,
and the machine looks intact and in pretty good shape for a nearly 25
year old printer. The problem is that on powering on I get beeping
and the Power/Fault LEd blinks. The manual suggests that this is an
out of paper problem. Suggestions?
I have managed to dismantle the big parts of the printer, and I don't
see any obviously dirty switches or sensors.
Thanks,

Dear All,
I was wondering if anyone might have any suggestions on how to clean old
IBM 150mb tapes? I know IBM made a tape-drive cleaning tape, but did they
make a tape cleaning kit?
Thanks in advance.

IIRC the 16x64 will mean that this is a 128Mb DIMM. (16Mb x 64 bits wide/
8 bits per byte)
Likely a PC-100 DIMM, from the PC100 part.

Who says a PC is a computer? It's just an Intel marketing gimmick... From my
experiences doing tech support, I shudder to imagine the general populace
using real computers... And macs are OK if you run Be on them.

I want one :-(
But despite how much I want one, it isn't worth $600 to me... anyone got
one they want to give me?

Listmembers -
I am desperate to get the data off the hard drive in my old Epson Equity
II+. The thing went dead on me last fall and I have spent the last 9 months
handing it round to various recovery people who can't figure out what to do
with it. The drive appears to be working properly, but the computer won't
boot even as far as the BIOS (I think). For a long time it prompted me for
the reference diskette, which I presume gave it information about what sort
of things it had, but it ceased to be able to read the floppy drive.
At this stage I am willing to try just about anything.
