I have some old tape backup drives I'm getting rid of. I know some of you
do data conversion services, so if one of you that does that wants one
(or all), they can be had for the cost of shipping.
I have a Maynard 150 MB drive plus 14 tapes, a few connecting cables and
some ISA and MCA interface cards. This is an external drive, with manual
and software (complete setup).
Also an Iomega Tape 250 drive and a stack of tapes (not sure the number,
but about a dozen or more). This is an internal drive, manual, cables,
software are with it.
And a Colorado 250 drive. No tapes. External drive, no cables, software,
manuals or power supply.
And an unknown internal tape drive. All the front says is "250 MB", so
its obviously a 250 MB drive. I don't know who makes it or anything else
about it. There are no obvious markings on it to determine who makes it.
I have no tapes for it, or software or manuals. There is a cable attached
to it, looks like it plugs inline into the floppy controller.
Also I have a cassette tape drive. Its a TEAC something in an external
SCSI case. Uses 120 MB cassette tapes IIRC. I was never able to find the
correct tapes for it. I do have a box of the wrong tapes however.
Like I said, these are all available for cost of shipping. Preference
will go to someone that will use them for data conversion or recovery
services (or anything else that directly supports classic computers). But
anyone that wants them can ask for them... I'd rather they go to someone
instead of the dumpster.

Hi, All
I just tried to boot my Motorola s8000 which has a 68030
and SCSI controller. All are
Motorola Mvme cards . The system lost the boot path. ???
If I use BO 2,0 it finds the
IPL loader but needs the file name to boot. I can't seem
to guess the right name. Is there
a way to interface with the IPL or a way to read the boot
path directory. I have no manuals
on this or OS tapes.
I would also like to find any of the manuals and OS tapes
for this.
It has a MVME141 processor, and a MVME327 SCSI card. I
don't really
remember the UNIX version I believe it was 5.3. This has 4
SCSI drives
and only the 2,0 finds the IPL loader.

Good(ish) news! I plugged in the 13w3 adapter to my Indy, and then a
good Sony Trinitron monitor -- and it WORKS! Well... the opening screen
does. After that the monitor goes black. I tried it on a random noname
monitor from 1992 -- after the "Stop for Maintenance" prompt goes off
screen, all the video gets very garbled very fast. Is this an adapter
problem? Since I have two monitors here that seem to support sync on
green, can I make this work?
Thanks!

Indy XL and Indigo XZ boards (the ones I have at least) provide
composite sync as well. I "fixed" a Sun 13W3->VGA adapter to work on
the SGI as put forth here:

I'd be happy to mirror anything Tony or Mr Davis would like
added to the bitsavers site.
Now that the new domain is running, I was planning on adding
other sections besides the pdf's
I've just mirrored Van Snyder's 1401 site, now that it has
gone behind jpl's firewall is isn't available to the outside
world any more.

The Indigo, Indy, most Indigo2s, and (AFAIR) the Octane all provide
separate syncs as well as sync on green. I have a collection as well.
One of my Indys has been used with a lot of different monitors since I
bought it in 1995; it's currently using an SGI monitor which only uses
the SOG, but previously had a monitor which didn't support SOG.
Several of my friends bought reconditioned Indigos from SGI and bought
standard VGA monitors with them. I don't know if the Personal Iris or
Crimson provide separate syncs (some other 4D series do -- that's why
they have more than 3 BNCs), but the later machines do -- and the
original question was about an Indy (which does).

I recently bought a Fluke 9010 test pod. With it, I got a model 210-9080
8080 Processor Adaptor Module made by Wildwood of Phoenix Arizone. This is
a pod similar to the Fluke pods. It has a wide ribbon cable coming out of
it that terminates in a 40 pin DIP plug presumably to plug into a CPU
socket. On the box is a ZIP socket (for the CPU?). It also has a double row
of 40 pins that appear to be test points. On the other end of the box is a
20 pin ribbon cable with a ribbon cable socket on the end of it. Does
anyone know what this is for or anything about Wildwood?

Try searching for the terminal's "type" rather than
its model number. For instance, model 6242 is type
D210.
And check out vt100.net; I think I saw a couple
Dasher manuals there, though not for my D210. :-(
(If anyone out there has a D210 manual, they need
to shoot a copy over to Paul at vt100.net.)
Cheers,
Bill.
