After attending the "First Saturday Electronics Flea Market" this weekend in
Dallas, I am the proud(?) owner of an Onyx Systems C8000 Unix box. I thought
the thing was an over-sized 1/4" tape drive at first. I got it mainly to
hack around on, but I need to get it working. If anyone has any information
about this machine, such as:
How do I get my hands on a Tech Ref?
How do I make it boot from the tape drive so I can re-install the OS??
What are the functions of the dip switches?
What company took over Onyx (so I can call and try to get a Tech Ref)?
What is the default baud rate and configuration of the tty ports?
...
Anything about this machine
I would appreciate anything you know.
I got the box for $10, so if I can't make it work, no big deal. But, I
plan to have fun trying.
Thanks in advance
Mark
