Indeed - a88k (not to be confused with m88k) wasn't it? (I was reluctant to
say that "all other Apollos are m68k"[1], as didn't the very early ones use
a
custom CPU that emulated the 68k because the Motorola part wasn't yet widely
available?)
[1] The later 7xx RISC-based series from HP doesn't count, of course...
Anyway, I think the Apollo install sets that I've seen do support all the
m68k-a-like machines - but contain no support for the dn10k; hence if you've
got a line on someone with dn10k media, I hope they're looking after it! :-)

For the dn10k? Intesresting... wasn't the dn10k install set
totally different Shame there's no manuals or media - that
would be a really neat find.
Actually, I know someone who has the Domain/OS release
tapes for it... to the Domain/OS set for the 'lesser'
Apollos? Nice to know there's a survivn
g
copy, anyway.
As I understand it, the DN10K uses a custom RISC processor and not a
680x0.
