Three MMUs seems a bit weird. I last programmed a Z8001 in 1979 so
maybe things have changed between then and when your machine was
built. If I remember correctly, the Z8010 MMU mapped 64 of the 128
segments, you could have one MMU and address 64 chunks of up to 64k
in the 16MB address range. With two MMUs you could access all 128
chunks. Are the MMUs set up for different processes, or are they
divided into instruction and data accesses or some other way?
The system I worked on would have eventually had 12 Z8001s each with
one MMU and 128K of local RAM plus the CPU were grouped into modules
of three and had about 3MB of RAM in the module and each module could
also access the other 3 module's RAM, but with more wait states. Each
Z8001 was responsible for managing a wide microprogrammed bit slice
processor for doing heavy mathematics, though the details might still
be secret even though the project was cancelled in the mid eighties,
several years after I left the company.
I got involved quite early, the first draft of the Z8001 instruction
set manual which I was given included a memory to memory transfer
instruction, but that was dropped before they issued the first sample
chips about a year later. A bit of a blow as we had started writing a
Coral 66 compiler for it by then.
When I retire I might get around to getting myself a Z8001 system if
there's any still around by then. I am kept busy at work programming
Apple Macs and at home restoring a 1962 mainframe computer (ICT 1301)
and restoring/maintaining my old cars (2 Daimlers, 2 Rovers, a Land
Rover, a Jaguar and a BMW).
I think you would have to be lucky to get your C code to use exactly
the same registers as the original object code. Are you sure it was
originally C or could it have been assembly code?
Anybody happen to have disks for OS/2 2.1? I tried installing it today on my PS/2 65SX and disk #8 is bad. not sure if anything past that is good or not.
Also I tried installing OS/2 1.1EE onto the same machine but fdisk could not find any drives. Since that machine is SCSI does OS/2 expect ESDI drives?

Well, just when I had thought that I'd had DEC racks figured out, I tried to disassemble this one. Now, every other DEC rack I've worked on, you just have to lift up (sometimes pretty hard) on the side panels, and they pop off. Not this one. This is a MicroVax 3900, that I have decided, likely against my better judgement, to install in my second floor computer room. Before it goes in there, I need to give it a good cleaning, and I'm going to bring it up in pieces. So far, I've gotten the RA90's out, removed the top, back and front, and now I'm trying to remove the BA213 from the rack. And, in order to do this, I need to take off the little latch/metal tab that holds the front door shut. It's held on with two screws, that can't be reached unless I remove that side panel.
Upon closer inspection, I see that these side panels are somewhat different than the ones I'm used to. They are made of plastic! Yes, while they have the same white-edged, black side appearance, they are made of a thick, bombproof plastic rather than the usual metal. They won't lift off, I've put a fair amount of force on them, and they just won't pop off. I can't see any kind of retaining screw or tab, and I'm at a loss.
Accoding to the back of the top panel, this is a Model 655QF-AZ, series H9644. Any ideas?
Another thing I wonder about, is just how much juice will this sucker need? I have two RA90's, and the MicroVax 3900 system (BA213 chassis), with one RA70 in it, and a decent population of cards. The power distribution unit that came with the cabinet sports a 30A power connector, but I know that I should be able to run this off a regular 15A circuit. Question being, can I run anything else off that circuit too?

I've got an Atari 1040STE, which was previously working (well, after I
blanket-resoldered the PSU - always a notorious spot for dry joints).
After leaving it for a while, I came back to find it had locked up with
the desktop showing, but not responding to keys or mouse.
On rebooting I get a blank white screen - locked, but just blank - and
the floppy drive doesn't spin up. Nor do I get keyclicks when I press
the keys.
What could I look at first? With the ST come up with the keyboard
unplugged, or will it just sit there in silence?

Chuck,
I'm sure I have it, I have a ton of OS/2 stuff, but I'm just packing up

Ping me again after the 10 or so, and I'll get it to you.

I have a couple of Beehive B103 terminals that were made for InfoRex corp that I would like to find homes for.
They are not currently working properly, although they were working prior to being stored. The CRTs display characters, but it is random and flashing. Probably just need a thorough cleaning.
I'm offering them for no charge other than packing and shipping .... although I found that packaging and shipping costs are significant. The ideal situation would be if someone could pick them up. I'm in the Kansas City MO area.
Interested parties may contact me at nrpsbx01 at comcast.net.
I've got what I believe to be a complete Micron Xceed setup for a Mac SE/30.
I know these are extremely rare and thought I would pass it by you guys to
see if I get any offers. I'd really rather avoid the eBay cesspool, so
seeing what the highest offer I can get would be.

On a whim, I ran the machine without any of the ROMs installed and I get
identical behavior to what I was already seeing (brief CPU activity,
then nothing). I suspect the CPU is just reading garbage and
something's broken between the CPU & RAM. The CPU's probably halting
on a bogus instruction... I'm going to do some investigation in that area.
Thanks for the suggestions...

Alas, I don't. My 'scope's an ancient Tektronix 561A. Works great, but

Hi
One can still get a Olivetti M20 but mose I've seen come up on
the Italian eBay. These don't have a MMU but instead use a ROM
to decode segements. It is limited to 512K of RAM.
It does have one segement where the data and instruction are
mapped to two different physical memories, giving a total of
128K within one segement.
The M20 can run the version of CP/M that DRI came up with.
It has a C compilers as well asn an assembler. It can also have
a hard disk connected but the original controllers are hard to find.
It is software compatable with the WD1000 controller. I use
a TRS80 controller and a ST251 drive. I did need to modify
the code to deal with stepping differences between the original
olivetti drive and the ST251. I just use the auto stepping.

Can you tell me a bit more about this? I can connect MFM drives to my WDC
too but I've problems with ST251-1 while ST251-0 are working. I think
that the -1 is probably somewhat different then the -0 but I'm not sure
where to look at in the WDC firmware (source is 86K) for what to
change...
http://pofo.de/P8000/misc/sources/EAW/Firmware/Firmware_-_MON16-WDC/WDC/wdc.
firm.s
I can switch something in the firmware from 40MHz to 41,4MHz but neither
this helps nor do I know what this means....

Hi,
As I promissed here comes my first question ;)
While writing several C files for the WEGA/ZEUS kernel out of the
disassembled objects (with unresolved symbols marked as external) I came
across a piece of code I can't get to reproduce when compiling C.
The original object contains:
0006de: 35a2 0004 ldl rr2,rr10(#$0004)
0006e2: 9424 ldl rr4,rr2
0006e4: 0704 7f00 and r4,#$7f00
0006e8: 5d04 8000 0004 ldl $8000+$0x4,rr4
I tried to reproduce it:
ipc.ip_addr.l = *(unsigned long)(uap->addr.l)&0x7F00FFFF;
Which generates:
0008 35a2 0004 59 ldl rr2,rr10(#4)
000c 0702 7f00 60 and r2,#32512
0010 5d02 8000* 61 ldl _ipc+4,rr2
0014 0004*
which looks for me functional the same...
I also tried:
ipc.ip_addr.l = *(unsigned long *)(uap->addr.l)&0x7F00FFFF;
Which generates:
0010 35a2 0004 60 ldl rr2,rr10(#4)
0014 1424 61 ldl rr4, at rr2
0016 0704 7f00 62 and r4,#32512
001a 5d04 8000* 63 ldl _ipc+4,rr4
Which looks "better" but isn't the same as the original because the
adress of rr2 gets loaded into rr4 first, not rr2 itself.
I'm a bit lost because I tried several different */&-pointer stuff to get
this as it is in the original object without success. the elements
ip_addr and addr are both of type saddr_t which is declare as follows:
typedef union
{
caddr_t l;
struct
{
unsigned left;
unsigned right;
} half;
} saddr_t; /* segmented address with parts */
rr4 itself gets later overwritten in both codes - my code and the
original object - it is not reserved for an internal C-variable. Maybe
someone from you can help me here?

My name is Bob and this is my first post.
What caused me to join this discussion group was a wang computer that
came into my possession that had two 5 1/4 diskette drives, one
internal and the other external.
It seemed to require its own peculiar start up disk and I suspect it
would have to be a formatted 160 or 180 kbit job.
Finding out information on this thing only seemed to lead to dead ends.
I cannot get greater specifics as I stored the thing in an inconvenient
place when I took it off the workbench.

Hi All,
I just wanted to say "Thank you" to everyone who helped me fix this classic
IBM XT motherboard with the Diagnostic ROM image and the settings for the
AWARD POSTcard.
Long story short, I replaced a 74LS245 and a faulty DRAM chip and now the
board boots fine.
Of course half the fun is finding what actually works, what doesn't, what
appears to be broken but actually works, what is broken but appears to be
working, etc. You know the drill, I am sure.
Fixing an old broken 16 bit VGA card which works in an 8 bit ISA slot helped
a lot. As did the old style PC/XT style floppy drive controller...
So anyway, it's fixed and I booted MS-DOS 5.0 and the Advanced IBM
Diagnostics from a 5.25" floppy disk drive. So I think we are there.
THANKS!
Andrew Lynch
PS, BTW the XT Diagnostic ROM image seems to work best when burned into a
2764 EPROM. I tried various other types of EPROM but the 2764 seems to work
best. I think IBM did some weird remapping of their custom Mask BIOS ROM...

The DRAM I could probably figure out myself, but how did you determine
the 74LS245 was at fault? (I, too, have a 5150 that won't boot)

Hi
My German isn't that good. If the step rate is the problem,
I did see a couple routines that were creating steps. One
was RAMP.
Setting the controllers step rate is always done on just one
port. I forget which. All you should really need to do is find
all the out's to that port and set the step to the auto rate.
For my code, it was only in two places.

Those disk formats sound like their "PC" with single-sided drives, 8 or 9

I'd be happy to trade for a 10 1/2" pop panel if that helps anybody (heck,
I'll trade for two - I've got several of the 10 1/2 panels).

The DRAM I could probably figure out myself, but how did you determine

Hi,
The old fashioned way; I used an oscilloscope to compare the inputs and
outputs of the bus transceiver. One of the buffers was dead and all of the
outputs on one side looked "funny" so I desoldered it and replaced it with a
new one. Of course, the IBM PC/XT motherboards have few sockets so
desoldering and replacing the chip was awful. I tried to nicely desolder it
but ended up destroying the chip and cutting it out.
One thing I really like about VG, NorthStar, Kaypro, and Heath is almost
their entire motherboards are socketed. Yes, I know direct soldered chips
are technically more reliable but they are a PITA to replace when they do
fail.
Thanks and have a nice day!

how would you intend to do this? You'll need someone
to machine a die, and subsequently someone to do the
injection molding. It's not rocket science (although
I've never done it). But I'm not volunteering...
Dies are very expensive by the way.

I've made up many Atari 2600 cartridges, and I've never had a hard time
finding used carts to recycle for the casing. There are enough Pac-Man, ET,
and Space Invaders cartridges out there for decades of homemade carts.
Besides, even if you had new cart cases made up, you'd still need the boards
>from used carts anyway. Unless, of course, someone makes those again too.
Vectrex, on the other hand, is a different beast. Not a lot of Vectrex carts
out there. Now, if you make up cases for those - I'll buy some - provided
that someone sends me a Vectrex, that is... <grin>

Anyone out there use a composite->VGA upscaler for their classic
computing and/or gaming needs?
I've been looking to shave a bit of space off my workbench and just use
a single SVGA monitor instead of that and an old composite monitor. I
picked up one of these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000XXZQWQ and
while it works great for certain systems (the C64 and NES, for example)
it gets really confused by the composite signal coming from other
systems (like the Apple II and Sega Genesis) and is unusable with them.
Anyone have any recommendations?
Thanks,

I've got 'em. 3.5" only, though, so if you need 5.25" versions,
you're on your own. I also have some CSD updates for it. Email me
with an email that will accept large attachments and I'll get what
you need to you.

If you've got MFM, IDE or ESDI, it's all the same to OS/2 (the basic
port-level interface is close enough to be inter-operable for OS/2).
You can even use SCSI, as long as there's an INT 13 BIOS extension
installed to access it, but you have to add the driver for the SCSI
controller to your boot diskettes (I've got a 386 running OS/2 2.1
with a DTC 3280 SCSI board).
I also have the developer's kit for OS/2 2.x, which, with the CSDs
comes to a lot of diskettes, not to mention the pile of
documentation. Also MASM and MSC for OS/2.
What I don't have is the network version of OS/2 2.x. Does anyone
have that one?

In short I have an upgraded to 64K system, the memory holds, I am
attempting to interface with a terminal and need to confirm baud rate
switch settings, etc. The docs on the 11/40 I have are limited to an
original 8K core system.
thanks.
