BTW I just noticed on that someone has a Pascal 3.1 manual on e-bay. Item number: 7607549442 I think I sent a copy of this to Al to be scaned but who knows, this may have something different in it. Joe

HP 9000 Pascal 3.2 : HFS on HP9133L

by bernd＠kopriva.de

Hi, i'm currently trying to initialize my HP9133L with the HFS file system, but executing MKHFS only runs into an integer overflow exception ... ... this is independent of the number of volumes that are used (i have to admit, i only have tried 1 .. 3 volumes). I have a Basic 6.4 at hand as well, with this one, it's possible to initialize the drive, but then, the volume isn't accessible by Pascal anymore :( Another issue : is it possible to boot from the floppy within the 9133 ? I can only boot from another 9122 that is connected, but not with the 9133 build in drive, later it's possible to use it normally Thanks Bernd

Of course one notices these things when trying to mount 19" gear in the rack :). >More interesting is the concept of 'U' when it comes to racks.

Hi Johnny, I tried again to download 'zemu.tar' via the link on the webpage http://64.253.97.239/pdp11/pdp11.htm which did work fine last week. Now I get: "HTTP 500 - Internal server error Internet Explorer" and the (Windows) text is "The page cannot be displayed.

Looking for Kaypro 4/88 MSDOS 2.21

by staylor＠mrynet.com

I'm in need of an MSDOS 2.21 boot diskette for some Kaypro 4/88 (CO-POWER 88 co processor) machines I've restored. I have the Kaypro diskettes to fire up the coprocessor and 512k memory add-on. The Kaypro co-processor start-up seems to be tied to MSDOS version 2.21. Any MSDOS 2.21 boot diskette will do, but perhaps the Kaypro-distributed one has additional utilities... not sure. Does anyone have a raw disk image or a teledisk image of a boot diskette I could download or be emailed? It is, of course, needed in 5.25" 360k format, but I can boot it and generate what I need worst-case. Thanks in advance, -scott
