I would like to do a bad sector scan on a RD52 connected to a RQDX1 (The machine is a pdp11/73 without OS) prior to installing BSD2.11.Is there a standalone program like zrqch0(only for RQDX3) that can be downloaded directly to the pdp via vtserver and recognizes the RQDX1 , i.e. a version of zrqb or something similar?

Re: [TUHS] LoC now involved with saving digital history

by Robertdkeys＠aol.com

As I am reading the details of this, it seems that they are at a planning stage, and wanting to coordinate the Library of Congress centrally with other federal and non-federal agencies and organizations to develop the "network" of libraries and repositories for these materials. It was not clear what funding was available to non-federal agencies. My expectation is that the PUPS and TUHS efforts ought to be somewhere in the overall thicket of the Library of Congress effort. We need to find out more about this legislation and potential work and funding. It sounds very interesting... Spinning the ol' propeller-headed beanie at full speed, and thinking out loud....

Wild long shot.... I used to write grants for this kind of thing. Find out more info and point me to where the granting info is and lets make a collective grunt to see if something is possible. Heck, all kinds of funds are available if you submit the right kinds of proposals. Yeah, I know, it is a pipedream, but.....(:+}}... Bob Keys (stirring the history pot, gently.....)

Hello fron Gregg C Levine Um no. I was thinking of V7, of the original UNIX. As it happens, I am still not comfortable with the earlier versions of BSD. So, I am interested in getting V7, or V6 to work via a networked environment. And yes, I have seen your file, and the read me for it. Gregg C Levine drwho8(a)worldnet.att.net "Oh my!"

[pups] Test

by Gregg C Levine

Test! Sorry for the disturbance. Just a routine test message to confirm that the list is awake. I haven't gotten anything since sometime in the past. Gregg C Levine drwho8(a)worldnet.att.net "This signature wants to be playing in the snow!"

Waking the List Up

by Warren Toomey

I guess it's time to wake the list up. So far the Unix Archive has done well at collecting mostly PDP-11 stuff, but now that were in the next century, we should start working on the 1980s and 1990s. I'd like to call for volunteer curators. Each would look after a subset of the Unix Archive: add files, write README.TXT, rearrange things to be more useful. The Archive has been pretty static for quite some time now, and there are a list of things TODO, and I know some of you have things waiting which I haven't done yet. So perhaps some new blood, will kick things along. Any volunteers?

This list is most definitely low-volume. Speak up, please. We can't hear you up here under the snow. Norman Wilson In a naughtly rosewood igloo somewhere near Toronto, ON

[pups] Anyone got a bulkhead connector?

by Ian King

I've checked commercial vendors and eBay to no avail, so now I'll appeal to the community: I would really like to find a bulkhead connector for a DEQNA card (the part number is CK-DEQNA-KB). If anyone has one they're willing to part with, please send me email with your terms. Otherwise, I'll just have to kludge something - but I'd sure like to do it right, as my 11/73 is in pretty nice shape. :-) TIA -- Ian
