working 8/E. I've actually got a second 8/e chassis and enough boards to get a basic 12 kiloword core system up and running. I just need to replace a boxer fan (bearings went on one of them and it grinds), and then debug the CPU. Ideally, I'd rather have an M than a second E though; especially since I'd probably be running it with Vincent's SRAM board instead of the core. It would make for the perfect portable system to take around. Hope you get your RK05 going. I am still waiting for a good > deal on an RK05; I'll probably have a custom SD card board made for the > Omnibus before that happens, though... :) I hope so too! Looking at the drives themselves, I'm pretty confident as they both look very well maintained. My RK05E card set passes the diskless diagnostics so as soon as I get the cabling I can move onto the next steps of bringing them back to life. I'm interested in your SD card board however. This is something that I'd totally go in on. Would be nice to have a board that just looks like an RK05 so that no OS/8 patching would be required, especially if it supported single cycle data break!
