FS: Industrial 486 ISA Computer with 8 GB DOM, Ethernet, MS-DOS 6.22, Utils
Description + pictures on the VC Forums: http://www.vcfed.org/forum/showthread.php?59315-FS-Industrial-486-ISA-Comput... This little box started life as an 8-port terminal and application server. It came to me with only the CPU board, and a crashed hard disk that looked like it had a plain DOS install on it anyway. I cleaned it up as described in the forum thread, but I'm thinking I'll sell it as my PICMG box is effectively the same thing but more flexible. Thanks, Jonathan
On Herb's recommendation, I ran TESTFDC, a companion utility to ImageDisk, and discovered that the floppy controller onboard the SBC can handle single-density as well as double-density with 128 byte sectors at all data rates. So, this would make a very nice little machine for imaging/writing out old soft sector disks! Thanks again, Herb, for prompting me to run TESTFDC!
