Hi Jules,
if i remember correct, then Tony Duell mentioned in one of the last Whitechapel threads,
that he has the media ...

Hmm, someone was supposed to be getting in touch with me about one of
these a while back, then they went quiet. I hope they didn't chuck it!
Whitechapel MG-1, a 32016 Unix machine, made in
Whitechapel, London.
Any install media? We have a couple at the museum; one's probably viable
for restoration using parts from both. Unfortunately the hard drive is
definitely shot in one of them, and the other is emitting a lot of
bearing noise and so doesn't have much time left.
I think they'd been stored in a giant container of dust and then had
water poured on them; and don't even ask about the corrosion from the
leaking batteries! :)
We have docs for them (no service manuals unfortunately) but no install
media so they're pretty much boat anchors right now...
cheers
