* mips RS4230 - The requisite RISC/os v5.01 media did
turn up somewhat recently, thanks to everyone involved in that effort. Now I’m just hoping
to eventually stumble over a new enough version of RISCwindows that will support the
console framebuffer (v4.11 IIRC)
Hmmm, I have the following QIC-150 tapes
o MIPS RISC/os Version 4.52
Binary Software Tape 1 of 2
Part Number 06-00147-002
o MIPS RISC/os Version 4.5.2
Binary Software Tape 2 of 2
Part Number 06-00147-002
o MIPS RISCwindows Version 4.00
Binary Software Tape 1 of 1
Part Number 01-00167
Plus all of it on a hard disk I took out of my MIPS RS4230 that I
still have... It had a color frame buffer and a big honkin monitor. I
don't know if I still have the color card or not. I don't have the
monitor...
Don't know if the tapes would work, but it looks like
http://www.bitsavers.org/bits/MIPS/ already has all this... Including
the sources.... HMMM...
