Hi all --
I snagged that Vitek Systems machine that was being discussed earlier
this month and now that I'm back from my holiday travels I have some
time to play with it. It's a 68010 machine with 2mb of memory and 2
40mb scsi drives. Hooked up a terminal to TT0 and it booted up to a
login prompt, much to my amazement. The login banner says:
VITEK Nerve Center II
Copyright (c) 1992 by bioMerieux Vitek Inc.
So I guess that gives a bit more detail on what this machine is.
Clearly a system used in some sort of medical application, and
bioMerieux appears to still be in business, though I can't find any info
on this particular machine on their site.
It appears to be running an early UNIX variant called Regulus (5.2.2,
dated 7/31/86) by a company called Alcyon. I can't find much more
information on the 'net other than the fact that it existed. Anyone know
anything about this version of UNIX? Any idea what filesystem it used?
I know none of the usernames/passwords, so either a backdoor or some way
to access the filesystem would be handy...
I'm going to be dumping an image of the drives this evening, before
something catastrophic happens to them...
Thanks,
Josh
