HP 1000 diag library on 7900A disc

Jay, Do you have the ability to make a raw sector dump of a 7900A disc cartridge to a file that can be read by a PC? I'm not sure how that would work, maybe dump the 7900A disc cartridge to 9-track tape and read the tape with a PC compatible tape drive, or something like that? I seem to recall seeing some HP 1000 disk image files that were 20MB or so on the web somewhere but can't find them now, so I think this can be done. Anyway, if you could dump the HP 1000 diag library 7900A disc to a PC readable file, I think the individual diagnostic images could probably be extracted from it. If I read the diag manual right they should just be saved on disk in standard absolue binary format, but with a three word header which forms a linked list to the cyl/head/sector of the next diag image in the list. (This is from the Diagnostic Configurator reference manual, p/n 02100-90157) -Glen _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.
