Does anyone have any SGI Onyx parts? Any parts. I am trying to resurrect a
deskside r10k onyx, and will need parts - right now I am more focused on
power and VCAM parts, but again, I am interested in all parts.
And if you have a system, I would be interested as well.
This is the original onyx, not the onyx2. I have an issue that is power or
vcam related.
thanks.

Uh, no. The copies there are 'prototypes', later modified for actual use by
adding in the actual address in main memory. Still trying to understand how
that works - the code (in sureg() in main.c) is kind of obscure.

Is there an archive of The Western Electric Engineer journal online
anywhere? In the July 1977, Volume 21, Number 3 issue there is a 7
page article "MAC-8: A Microprocessor for Telecommunication
Applications", by Herbert H. Winfield".? which provides a good
architectural overview of the MAC-8 for those that are interested.
Several years ago I found that the University of Minnesota Libraries
had that issue in their collection and they were able to provide a
photocopy on request for a minimal charge to cover processing and
copyright expenses. From a quick glance at their website now it's not
obvious if they still provide that service, and still have that
journal in their collection.
is there anything in bstj? if so they are at archive.org.?? ed#

Hi Everyone,
The DiscFerret found a new home.
I did get some questions on its usefulness, which I would address here.
Indeed the software developed for it is limited to a driver and some
analytical tools. But it uses the same format for flux-intervals as the
CatWeasel, at different (higher) clock rates. So any open source
CatWeasel program is easy to adapt to the DiscFerret. Using the provided
MagPie dump program I managed to adapted Tim Mann's cw2dmk program for
the CatWeasel to dfi-files
(https://fjkraan.home.xs4all.nl/comp/divcomp/discferret/). Of course
this only does FM, MFM and variants (DEC and Intel), but demonstrate its
usefulness for archiving.
It is too bad production stopped and the writing image software never
materialized.
BTW, reading floppy disk rate flux-changes can reliably be read with
modern ~100 MHz micro-controller. Several are commercial available.
AFAIK not open source.
Greetings,
Fred Jan
