Booting OS/8 from a PC

Kyle,

Unfortunately I found the 8a SLU only went to 9600 baud so I didn't try it yet. I got OS8 running from my RX01, so I'll use that as a test bed. I do have a 8650 to try though.

Glad to see it running. It was good to see you again too.

I understand. 9600 would be abysmal with SerialDisk. Heck, even 19200 feels sluggish. Still usable for those that have nothing better, and that's the important thing.

Congrats on getting it booting, though! Always a great feeling, seeing that dot prompt.

I spent much of my weekend working with a friend getting the Omni-USB board working with my software. Man, is it fast! Yes, it's slightly slower than an RK05, but I bet my software would win with a random read test. I should write one up.
