OK. I misunderstood. There were no firmware listed in the adaptec/firmware
directory so I thought this was the problem. I also have the ACB-3530, the
ACB-4070, some Xebec S1410A and some OMTI bridges if there is a need for a
firmware dump.
turns out
that one was good. the Adaptec 4000 dump was the bad one
It is a 4000, not a 4000A, right? I have the ACB-4000A and can make a of it.
thanks, but I have dozens of 4000A boards, so I'm not so worried about that
assuming Tek didn't use custom firmware.
the challenge will be bootstrapping without a tek scsi
floppy.
Maybe I can borrow Paxton's if he still has it.
I'll work on reading the floppies today. They were in boxes and sealed in
plastic bags by the seller, so I'll try a couple that I have duplicates of
to evaluate their condition.
I've also sent a note to the MAME developers to see if they have any
interest
in simulating the system.
