I have fanilly gotten around to checking this model II/expansion box that
was saved from garbage truck.

Very clean, no crt burn and a missing keyboard problem that was solved by
Hans Franke sending one he had all the way from Germany!

Id like to show this thing off a bit more then just turning it on and seeing
ask for a disk....I dont think Ill be able to boot this from 5.25" 1.2M
drives connected to this...

The unit came with a single 8" diskette that does not boot (written
"accounts receivable"). I dont know if its the floppy drive that is bad or
its not a bootable diskette or....internal 8" floppy drive looks "alive"
anyways...

So I am asking if anyone as a easy way of making an 8" boot disk in this
situation or would be nice enough to provide me with one.

Id like to get at least one. Better would be one of each OS this thing ran
and a few softs.

I have a fairly large "for trade/giveaway" list of witch you could pick
something to thank you for the troubles...

Thanks
Claude
