Title: Amiga System V Rel 4.0 Beta 3J
Post by: TheMagicM on February 18, 2016, 09:59:34 PM

Found it in my pile of floppy disks.  Anyone need me to dms or lha it?


EDIT:
damn..comes up as NODOS..so I'm assuming I need an actual A3k UX to read it?

@TheMagicM

is this just the boot floppy? i can't remember if the install data was only on tape or there were also floppy sets. in any case -- you may want to post about it over on EAB. AMIX requests occasionally pop up from time to time.

@TheMagicM

sweet! i know it's copyrighted, and, um....

/me coughs

... i'd love a copy if you're able. you may not be able to make an image, though, without an existing AMIX installation. i had AMIX up and running about a year ago, but i don't have a working config at the moment. great find!

I have a 3000ux setup with tape drive, if you cant dms it i may be able to help archive it.
Do you also have the tape for this release?

In any case,a good thing to archive. I wouldnt mind getting a copy.

@TheMagicM /@machy

could you send it to mechy, if he's willing? i'm going to be away from home for some weeks for work, and i still need to get my AMIX system back up. this is a great find, and i'd love for there to be an archive copy somewhere.
