Hello,
Some background: I was going through my computers last weekend, trying to
get their operational status changed from "mothballed" to something else.
I found a couple of HP 9153C & 9153s from the storage and in an act of
desperation decided to connect them to a 9000/382 running HP-UX. Imagine my
surprise when the 382 started booting HP BASIC!
After that I went searching for another machine (found a 340, 310 and an SRM
server). First I tried to boot basic on the SRM server, but that failed due
to not having enough memory (512KB). I eventually got it working with the
310 + HP composite video card + Phillips monitor.
A couple of questions:
What can I do with it and where do I find more info ?
I've never used HP BASIC so the only commands I got
working were PRINT and a mysterious LIST BIN, which gave
me more than a screenfull of stuff like this:
"CLOCK 5.0". I assume this is HP BASIC 5.0 ?
I guess I can use this with the SRM server ?
Do I need extra software to go from HP-UX to SRM ? (I've go extra cards)
I don't even know how the access the disk drives :)
So any help is appreciated, thanks.
