I need help!! I have a CDC114 which, in reality, is an altos 8600 running Xenix 1.1. I need a boot disk and dont know enough about the system to actually make one for myself. I am also having trouble with the 8 inch floppy that is in it. I am getting numerous errors any time I access the disk. Does anyone have any information regarding the internal workings (schematics, port listings, etc.)? Altos manufactured this machine quite sometime ago, and finally discontinued any support for this machine 5 years ago. Is there any other implementation of Xenix, or Unix that exists for this machine? If so, I would like any information anyone can send me about the machine or the operating system.
