HELP ... I have just purchased an AT&T 3B2/300 with a 36 MB HD, 2 MB RAM, Port expansion card & Network interface card. This system *DOES NOT* have the operating system with it (I know that this is unusual!) so I am in the market for this. I do however have access to several 3B2 manuals (system admin & utilities vol's #1-3) I need to know as much information as possible about this machine. I wish to know the processor type and if it is possible to load XENIX into it and as much information as possible regarding its hardware listed above. I understand that the serial connections are of RJ-11 type and also wish information on building a cable to convert this to DB-25 as I am connecting a VT220 terminal to the console and serial ports. I would like to add an additional hard drive tomake room for the development set that I am also looking for. I know that I ask for alot and I really appreciate all the information sent to me. uunet: {!cmcl2,uunet}!esquire!ibarra or internet ibarra@dpw.com VOICE_LINE: (212)530-4119 Thank you, Mike Ibarra

Has anyone ever run a different OS (or even something non-AT&T) on a 3B2? Just curious, I have a 3B2/400..... scott -- Scott J.M. Campbell scott@skypod.uucp Skypod Communications Inc.
