Besides the copy of TSSnet I have? There should be another copy around somewhere. dale

Agony is one of the two in Florida being worked on, It should be coming back home in 3 weeks, if not sooner.

I have a Stride 460 that I've booted up to the rom debugger and can read floppies, boot pascal, but the hard drive power drive circuit is dead. It is a Maxtor 120M drive.

I believe I have some installation diskettes. But also if I can get the hard drives to come back to life. It's on there.

TSSnet is an implementation of DECnet. It was meant to allow Amigas to work in DECnet networks. I worked with the creators of TSSnet to get X-Windows to work with it on the Amiga.

Not specifically related to your post, but I see you are trying DECnet out on some non DEC platforms. There is also TSSnet that was available for the Amiga computers.

We plan on showing a Sage IV running Idris in a small scale recreation of the Jan 1984 Amiga CES booth where it was used with the Amiga wirewrap prototypes to show the first version of the earliest Amiga demos. Currently the actual Sage IVs are being worked on in Florida, but if anyone has a...

my 1140 doesnt even have a Z8 cpu on it. the three motor drive lines are sitting at 0v so i think the controller is dead. but without schematics it will be real hard to debug. the schematic on bitsavers is i think for a newer version

The schematics mentioned don't exactly match my board. I'm thinking I have a newer rev of the board. So probably close enough.

@Makefile Glad your drive spins up fine. I'm about to dive into my xt-1140 that was in my stride 460. I get about the same resistance as you measuring 5v and 12v to ground. But my drive just sits there when power applied, nothing. no squeeks or clicks or anything. I'm suspecting a power...

This will be useful if it comes time to me wanting to transfer files back to Idris. But I've not brought up Idris yet on the Stride 460. When David sends my Save IVs back to me I'm ho[ping to have a working Idris system, then.

there were lots

Hmm, I'll check out retro-fuse, maybe all the works been done. Although I think Idris is not exactly v6, maybe making retro-fuse work with Idris is a better idea.

https://github.com/harrisonjansma/Unix-V6-File-System This appears to be a students effort to complete an assignment to read a v6 filesystrem volume. I started with that to see how it would do with my 640k image file. There are several problems with the code, and the code I have now iis from...

That does produce results for the query, unfortunately the results just indicate there is nothing that does what I'm looking for. Thats, ok. I've modified some github code I found that was a reasonable enough start/framework and just needed some fixing up. I can now browse around an Idris file...
