Hi,
Your posting was from quite a while a go but I thought I'd try dropping
you a line.
I was looking for some information related to the B26 hardware but
there's not too much. I wondered how you got on with your one? I
recently picked one up but I suspect that the floppy/HD card and perhaps
the HD to be faulty so I can get to the 'L' prompt where it stops. The
'L' is where is checks for a floppy drive.
I have changed what I can eg cables, floppy drive, cleaned it out etc
but it does not want to go further.
I picked it up with a pile of manuals, software and system disks.
Did you ever get yours going? Any idea where I could source spares? If
all else fails do you know someone who has an interest in the B26 and
BTOS or CTOS?
I would commit an unnatural act to get a set of CTOS system disks.
:-) My B26 system (CP-001) boots through to a login prompt, but I don't
have the admin account's password.
Do you have any way to make disk images from your set?
