Frank:
Thanks a lot for typing all this. Very interesting
reading.
Is it possible
to at least run some tests
and have it output diagnostics to one of the BACI cards?
I suspect it depends on what loader ROMs are installed in the
computer. There is a loader ROM that supports booting from
cartridge tape drives in an attached 264X terminal.
Ok, so that means that I'll have to unmount the lowest
pc board in order to take a look at the ROMS.
I had been avoiding that as those two boards are
very dirty and I'll have to clean them up. The machine is
at work, and cleaning it is a water hose/backyard sort of
job; I'll have to transport it home for this; not a nice
prospect, because of all the construction work currently going
on at Cornell - I can't get my car close to the office,
I'll have to carry the beast a good 1/4 mile, uphill :-( .
