Does this box have a BIOS setup program onboard or
must you use a
configuration disk? (if so do you have the disk?)
Nope. No NVRAM either. Just a bunch of dip switches like an XT.
Check the NCR web site for info.
I had a 6300 and always wanted a 6300+. BTW, the story I heard is
David Korn wrote the Korn Shell on a 6300+ for System V.
It was used at AT&T as a single user development box for a while
until the workstations began to appear as AT&T's Bell Labs moved from
Vaxes and 3b's with BLIT's and 630 terminals to 7300's and later
to Sun Workstations.
I'd try turning off the parity check on the unlikely chance that the parity
check itself is loopy . . . other than that, you've got a _lot_ of soldering
to do ;>)
back room and check it out again.
