aviion 4000 info

Well darn. Anyway, I can direct you to a source for install media and keyboard/mouse. Call Computer Parts Barn in Asheville, North Carolina. The proprietor there has a ton of DG stuff including Aviion gear. He'll be able to help you if anyone can. The number should be (828) 274-5963. The name is Ed Kirby. He's a little hard to get to know, but he's a nice guy and I swear by him. IIRC, the Aviions generally ran a version of DG/UX which is DG's version of Unix. There might be a version of AOS for it as well, but I'm not sure on that score. There were two kinds of Aviion (Nova in reverse if you didn't know). There was a Motorola 88k CPU-based version (sometimes multiprocessor), and an Intel version. The Intel versions are the latter.
