Thanks to Dave Dunfield's fine work, I have my
Horizon system up and
running!
One thing still puzzles, me though: Is it possible to create and boot
SD diskettes on a DD system? When I boot at DD and bring up NST, it
cheerfully writes a SD diskette from an image. However, that image
will not boot. Should this work?
Yes, however you must forst format the disk as DD and when you do the
copy you must also specify DD for the destination. Its in the horizon
DD manuals.
Next hurdle is getting the Morrow Disk Jockey 8"
controller hooked in.
Some of the diskettes I received with the unit (none of which boot)
have Basic and ASM programs that look like they're intended as support
for the DJ controller. Without documentation, this is going to take a
bit of experimentation, I think.
Get docs as that will save a huge amount of time. They are likely on
Bitsavers or other archives.
