For many machines I am, James. Unfortunately, the Victor 9000 is not one
of them. The problem is that the 9000, or Sirius, uses a very unusual
format on its disks. They are both Group Code Recording formatted and
also done on a variable speed drive. Essentially, the only person who can
provide you with a boot disk is someone who owns one that is in working
condition.
I will post this to the Classic Computer mailing list and see if it
generates any response to you. In the meantime, it might serve you well
to post a query on comp.os.cpm and see if that gets a response.
Wish I could do more.
