OK, one more time with feeling, because apparently when I pasted that link it

If you want to get ContrAlto, the actual, real, working link is:

Quick question...I am setting up disks to be imaged from various requests

So, I'm winding up to boot Unix V6 from an RX02 floppy. So I need two things:
- Details of how DEC ROM bootstraps boot from RX02's. I vaguely recall seeing
documentation of this somewhere (e.g. which sectors it loads, etc), but now I
can't find it. Don North has dumps of the RX02 ROM's, but I'm to

Sorry, I got my machine finally home two days ago.
During transport, it was really bend out of shape

Was there a version of kermit for CP/M ?

I don't know if this applies to the SAGE II or not, but 22DISK has two
SAGE IV definitions, for 48 tpi and for 96 tpi diskettes, as derived
from samples that I have.

Ok...I'll try it tomorrow and post, you can let me know how it goes. I'll
prob figure it out when I analyze the disks using the tools, just not sure
if being pascal they have any weirdness

If you need jumper settings for the 55FG, I've got them.

Hi all,
On my road trip earlier this year one of the docs I snagged was a ring
binder of Foxboro
Integrated Circuits dated 10/73, Revision A, one of 200 copies. It covers chip
characteristics
and compatibility cross references.
This was part of the doc set for the Foxboro FOX 2/10 (PDP-11/15)
