I'm trying to get my PDP-8/e running a
"real" OS (as opposed to loading
programs one at a time from papertape).
I've had an RX02 drive (supposedly working) in my possession for some
time, and I just need to find a working M8357 to seal the deal. I
currently have a non-functional M8357 -- I get an error code from the
dirxac diagnostic that translates to "Unexpected Transfer Request
Flag." I'm not much of a hardware hacker, unfortunately, so I'm in no
position to debug/repair the board.
If anyone out there has an M8357 they're willing to part with, or has
the ability to repair these things, please let me know.
Thanks!
I could probably fix it for you. My main problem is time.
How important is it?
(And I'm sure there are lots of others who also could fix it.)
