Neither OS has been "current" for fifteen years. Media is still floating around, but you will have to dig a bit to find it. Peripherals and add-in cards (and tape drives for that matter) are not generally interchangeable between DOMAIN and HP-UX releases. If you have a system set up for HP-UX, you'll need at the very least a different keyboard and mouse to run DOMAIN/OS, very likely a new network interface card, and potentially an entirely different card cage (ISA vs. DIO-II). If you'll give me a week I'll have the S400 hardware maintenance manual published on my website, which gives illustrated parts breakdowns, LED diagnostic codes, part numbers, troubleshooting procedures, etc. for the series 400 workstations. There are also incomplete ports of BSD around for this platform. A VGA monitor can be used with the color VRX framebuffer as long as it supports 1280x1024 @ 60Hz with composite-sync-on-green. The AT- looking keyboard port will NOT accept a PC-AT keyboard! It's for a DOMAIN keyboard (for running DOMAIN/OS) which is a different beast entirely. HTH. Did you have other, more specific questions? ok bear
