Trebor/Curt,
I have an IBM System 1 in my office in Wilmington, Delaware. It was pulled
from production in working order but I have no idea how
to get it running.
I have a lot of the same components you've described. I
worked with an
ex-IBM tech for about three hours to do a system inventory and figure out
what conntects to what, but that's about as far as we got. I would love
some help if anyone is in the MidAtlantic USA area and knows the Series 1
hardware.

Wow, Bob I wish I could help you out. I installed one at Moody's
Investment back around 95-96' or so... I used to have all the technical
manuals and such, its been so damned long, I think
I'd be as lost as you
are in trying to get the beastie up and running -
gorgeous machines
though, very nice design.
