Strangely enough, I find myself in that category...
After 13+ months, I'm back off the Ice and thawing out in NZ for a
number of weeks. While there's a small chance I'll make it up to
Hamilton before New Years, I think this trip, I'll mostly be on the
South Island. If there are any Classiccmpers in Christchurch or
Dunedin who wouldn't mind a visit, drop me a line, off-list, and we
can go for a beer or equivalent.

off the ice as in S.Pole? Crikeys mate you must be
having the time! Smack a penguin for me, ay? ;)

Got one, but no stylus, cable or docs/drivers. Any

That's easy. The Amiga CD32 (I own one).
I got all the A600 related questions right,
which is good as I own two :)

I put an introductory manual up under pdp11/rt11/micropowerPascal on
bitsavers. There is a five volume manual set for the product, which doesn't
appear to be in the CHM archives. Looks like that would be a good thing to
be on the lookout for.
I have more racks than I can use (or store), so I have one, maybe two, to
give away. It's just the bare rack - no sides, door or top, but it does
have casters and it's free :-) Pickup only in Milpitas CA.

I use them in support of the old packet network here in New Jersey. If anyone is throwing away the smaller drives let me know. I'll take them for the price of shipping. I could use 5 or 6 less than 540 meg drives.
A typical packet backbone node using flex net takes less than 10 meg, and runs comfortably in a 486/66 with 16 meg of RAM.

I was lucky enough to be able to borrow a box of random Ultrix TK50
distribution tapes. Unfortunately I have to give it back, but before I do
I'd like to be able do a complete Ultrix installation on some system that I
have. The printed labels on the tapes are somewhat cryptic, however -
here's a sampling of what I have
DECNET-ULTRIX V2.0 BIN
ULTRIX-32W V1.0 BIN
ULTRIX WS 1.1 UNSUPP
VAX C/ULTRIX V1.0
ULTRIX-32 V2.0 SUPPORTED
ULTRIX-32 V2.0 STAND ALONE / ULTRIX TK50 #1
ULTRIX WS V2.0 (RISC)
FORTRAN FOR RISC V1.0
ULTRIX AND UWS (VAX) UNSUPPORTED SUBSETS
ULTRIX/UWS T4.0A-1 (RISC) / SUPPORTED VOL 1
Dumb question #1 - I assume that the ones that say (VAX) are VAX, and the
ones that say (RISC) are PMAX/MIPS, but are the ones that don't specify
(e.g. "DECNET-ULTRIX V2.0" or "ULTRIX-32W V1.0 BIN") also assumed to be VAX?
What actually constitutes a complete Ultrix base system distribution? Is
it three tapes - SUPPORTED, UNSUPPORTED, and (if necessary) WORKSTATION ?
Are the SUPPORTED tapes supposed to be bootable?
Roughly what hardware is supported by the VAX versions? I would guess a
MicroVAX/VAXstation-II/2000 should work, but what about a KA650/655
(uVAX-III/III+) ? Was there any Ultrix version that ran on a
VAXstation-4000/60/90/VLC?
Does the DECNET version correspond to the Ultrix version (e.g. DECNET V2.0
for Ultrix V2.0)?
Probably the most important question - are there any scanned Ultrix SPDs
and/or installation instructions online anywhere? This would probably
answer all my other questions :-)
Thanks,
Bob Armstrong

I'll see if I can dig up anything on uP Pascal in the archives. I've never
actually seen a copy.

Nope.. RT can't read either. You can normally guess the file system type by
an ASCII dump of the first block or two.
