greetings all

with regards to my previous question regardsing the newly aquired
Digital Server 2100A (Model 500MP) --- the machine starts up and drops
into srm mode cleanly and responds srm questions cleanly and promptly.

as per teh subject line, does anyone know if it is (still) possible to
get/order a digital unix/compaq tru64 unix licence and or medai pac
from i presume compaq as being the final resting place of things
Digital, Inc ???

my 2100A has 2 ??? mhz cpus and some 256 mbyte dram with somee holes in
teh motherboard/buss subsystems are to hols two more cpu's and more
memory simms i'd guess given teh age of this beastie. it also has a lot
of esia slots, <sad grin> is it still possible to find somewhere
perhaps someone who has systems diskette that is required to configure
the eisa buss (the utility is called Eisa Configuration Utility, ECU)
these are to be found on the System Configuration Diskette (SCD) which
is suplied with teh system ... anyone got one or more laying around
that they nologner require, surplus to requirements, perhaps make a copy
or two of off, perhaps, maybe ..

hopefully this alpha 2100a will beable to circumvent teh multiple cpu,
ntpd clock (double speed from what ive gathered from the google
research/private reading on the topic.

with much appreciations thanks and gratitude.

warm regards

jonathan
