The M9312 can be setup to also act as a UNIBUS terminator card, and can reside
in the
A-B position of the last UNIBUS backplane slot (ie, the 'UNIBUS out' slot).

Unfortunately, dosemu only works on i386, not amd64.

I've seen folks make belts from heat-shrink tubing. Also, o-ring splicers
can be used to create small belts, but it's an expensive solution just to
get one belt. I'

Huh, well that's no good. If you give the exact dimensions of the original
belt, I'll call Tim up and see what he can get.
I've known him for almost 30 years and would be happy to order a batch of

Wholesale might work. I need 3-4 just to get my own drives working
