We are considering putting together a Unix system for manufacturing software
on a variety of media.
We need to make custom packages for each sales order. We need to support
several media including:
Sun 1/4" Cartridges
9 track 1600bpi 1/2" tar tapes
IBM PC MS-DOS 5 1/4" DS DD floppies
IBM PC MS-DOS 5 1/4" High Density floppies
IBM PC Xenix 5 1/4" High Density floppies
Microware's OS-9 5 1/4" floppies (variety of formats)
Microware's OS-9 3 1/2" floppies (variety of formats)
Others in the future.
All the devices should connect to one unix machine that can read/write
all the various media.
The unix machine should support TCP/IP and NFS networking.
It would be nice to be able to read/write Vax VMS 1/2 inch tape as well.
I would like to have control over the various floppy physical formats
as well as the file system on the floppy.
If anyone knows of a system that could be realitivly easily configured
to handle all these different media, please drop me a line. We are
capabile of creating some of this, but I would much prefer to have
most of it already accomplished!
