I know it's crazy, but I finally got my FPGA based

It's been sort of working for a while but had some odd bugs. I did a
lot of simulation and comparison
with simh. I think it's pretty close to correct now. There are still a
few bugs to clean up but it seems to run
everything correctly and save files to the disk.
I hope to agument my "disk maker" to extract and rebuild tss/8 file
systems soon. It would be nice
to build up disks from some of the decus programs. Right now it will
extract and replace the
main parts of TSS/8 but not the file system itself.
It's not crazy, it's fantastic! Congrats!
