Are there disk images for earlier versions of Model 16 Xenix available
on the 'net? My Model 16 came with 2.3A, and it's not looking like I'll
be able to run 3.0 or greater unless I find a new CPU board. (After
doing some research and examining the hardware I have more closely, it
turns out I have a 68k CPU board which cannot be upgraded.)
I'm putting together a PC that I can use to read/write 8" floppies so
when I get that finished I can make images of my copy of 2.3A, if they
don't already exist...

I can't help you with your hard drive
problem (I'm not well-versed
in TRS-80 hard drives either) but I have a Model 16 here in pieces
that I will eventually get working. I'd love to have copies of those
Xenix floppies...Do you (or will you) have a way to image them?
Disk images at my site:

Two different sets, Made with image disk, and with CW2DMK:

use ImageDisk 1.12 (at the top of Dave's page), or DMK2CW on Tim Mann's page.
These images work with 8" DS/DD floppies and 5.25" DS/HD floppies.
