That is pretty much what I have in the 3/260 crate.

The drive is a small 3.5 inch hung sideways and backwards so it can butt
up to the stub of the cable header where it used to connect to the md
board.  Just wish there were more cable there....

That I will do.  Tonight it should whirr dinosaur style.....(:+}}...

What fortran is that in the Sunos 3.5 tapes, F77 or F66?
One of my main reasons for trying it is to resurrect some ancient
Fortran stuff for the fun of it.  Fortran came along on the 3.5 set.

What c compiler is that in the 3.5 tapes, pcc or sun's compiler?

Is the 3.5 basically a 4.2/4.3BSD port, or did sun do a lot to it?

Many Thanks!

Bob
