Subject:?help with H11 and H27
Hi. Brand new to this list. I joined because based on your past posts I believe you guys
might be able to help me with my problem. I just acquired an old Heathkit system
consisting of an H19 terminal, an H11 computer, and an H27 disk drive. I have managed to
get the H19 and H11 talking to each other (see my short video at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzZ3HHd1V3o&feature=youtu.be but I don't have any
documentation for the H27 so I don't know how to use it with the H11. ?I have two
floppies that came with it (actually I have a bunch that came with it as shown in my photo
gallery
http://gallery.me.com/rbarline#100619), one titled "Softech UCSD H11 System
Disk" and one titled "Softech UCSD System H11 Utilities".
Can anyone help me figure out what to type on the terminal in order to get the disk drive
to start the boot process? Thanks in advance.
The Rhode Island Computer Museum has the same system, but no software.
It would be great if you could make images of the diskettes and send
them to Al Kossow for archiving.
