From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: jasomill@shaffstall.com (Jason T. Miller) Date: Mon, 5 Nov 2001 10:56:40 -0500 (EST) Subject: [pups] Re: Searching for 8" DSDD drive In-Reply-To: <200111050455.fA54tBv59428@minnie.tuhs.org> Message-ID: I should be able to read them, although I admit I am far from Delaware. Not far from a mailbox, though. I can do raw reads and RT-11 filesystems from both RX01 and RX02 on my PC, although I tend to simply do raw reads and use RT or RSX on the Supnik emulator, write a virtual tape, then parse the tape out with a C routine or Perl script (trivial), to extract files from PDP FSes. DS/DD shouldn't be an issue, although software interleaving can be a pain (RX50s have this problem. I've always wondered what the justification for not putting the correct sector numbers in the address area of the sector was!). Sincerely, Jason T.
