Hi all -
Snagged a Sage IV machine, running p-System (IV.21) with the Modula-2
suite installed on the internal hard drive (which I believe is 20mb; I
haven't disassembled the machine far enough to ID the drive and I don't
have any of the hard drive utilities available on the machine to probe
with). I'd like to back up the hard drive before I do anything else
with this thing, especially since I don't think the Modula-2 software
has been archived anywhere (if I'm incorrect in this regard do let me
know). Plus there's a sweet half-finished Vampire novel on the drive
that I simply must save.
Anyone have any experience with these and have any backup suggestions?
I'm considering writing a quick Modula-2 program to dump the drive
sector-by-sector over the serial port but if there's some prior art here
I'm a big fan of saving time.
Incidentally -- anyone have any contact with David Erhart, the guy who
runs sageandstride.org? His FTP site (which hosts a lot of the
documentation, schematics & software) is currently down; I've e-mailed
him to no response. (Anyone happen to have this stuff archived?)
Thanks as always,
Josh
