Message-Id: <9107141749.AA02878@bessel.umd.edu> Sender: northstar-users-request@wsmr-simtel20.army.mil To: northstar-users@wsmr-simtel20.army.mil (*sigh*) I have a Northstar Horizon and no boot diskette. It has a hard disk, but won't boot from it -- I don't know whether the hard disk is actually functional or not. Can anyone give me pointers toward obtaining a copy of MP/M for this beast? One of my housemates has a running Northstar Advantage, so if there's a way to make a copy of CP/M for the Horizon from that, that would at least get the Horizon running, but I have no idea whether that is possible.
