Pin 1
they might have different ground
systems. If so, grounding both ends might produce a LARGE current
through the cable, possibly enough to be hazardous.

More precisely: ground the cable at exactly one point. Any point will do, but
it must be grounded (because none of the taps provide a ground).

I had this experience with a Tadpole N40, running AIX 3.
I simply DD'ed the drive, took the image...
$ strings aix-machine.img | grep root:
...to get the password line.
Dump that into a passwd file and run john (the password cracker utility) on
it for a couple days.
I don't think Linux can mount
In my excitement about getting a new machine to play with I forgot what
I had done previously with these iso images. That is, I used linux to
dd them onto SD cards attached to SCSI2SD drive emulators.

The original Macsyma was developed at MIT. I think the LCG group at
Project MAC? It was written in Maclisp.

I'm not sure, but Eric would know. For now, notes on his progress are
