fsck is a stand
alone utility and I didn't get any software with the machine, except
what was instaled on the 8" HDD. It would be really nice to get the
software and make the machine usable again.
My machines are in the same state, which is why I asked about the stand-alone utilities. The only standard DEC card was the CPU. All
of the rest was custom
to Tek. The version of the box with 5" winchester uses a sasi host adapter, so
in theory it should be possible to image the disc.
The 8" winchester machines have a Micropolis 1203 drive with the standard
Micropolis controller board on top. The host interface for that is not
SASI (AFAIK), but it is documented in the Micropolis documentation. So it
may be possible ot image that drive too.
