SO if you are a member of Atari Forum or Exxos Forum and are interested in hardware there are full threads there on this. A Polish fellow named Tori or Toriman depending on the forum reversed Engineered a bunch of hardware boards from back in the late 80s and 90s http://atari.myftp.org/atari16bit/icdmicro/icdmicro.html is the micro project - you can back though the site to see the others. The micro was originally designed for internal mounting in the MegaST - to allow a HDD to be inside the pizza box. Well I have wanted to use one of the SCSI2pi or bluescsi projects for a while, but it is designed for a SCSI interface not ACSI - so when this was done I thought it was perfect to reshape as an external project. I have done that. Just figuring out how to do my power to the board and I will post it all up.

It will run from a HD.. it needs 1meg of memory - if you want to run as an HD program there is a file that needs to be renamed - in the manual near back running on HD. Tos should be fine anyway. but if you emu a STF then do 1.04 (most compatible) James btw runs fine in Hatari - so the data disk .st does work. guess my physical copy is corrupt.

If anyone else can try, I have loaded the software, but I keep getting an error with it, info.fil on register and edinfo.fil on editor. It says it cannot load. Anyone got it to work? James

That is a cool story save2600 James was just going though stuff after the move and wanted to make sure it had been archived!

I ended up with the manual. But no working copy of the program.:( if anyone has it. Would be great to see it.

Birth of a new BBS - the origin story
Bikerbob replied to Lastic's topic in Atari BBS Gurus's Community Chat
So can you take the msg system from the original main.m can move it to an outside mcl? or just change change it so that an OPEN msg does not have the option to be deleted by the author or recipient? I think this would be better. But the biggest difference between Michbbs and say, Express, Ratsoft, even FoReM - is the fact that the mail system and the msgs are seperate, and you dont have to worry about trying to figure out why it says there are 84 msgs in the first sig, but you are jumping from 67 to 74 to 81 etc.. because the others are private msgs. Even with the 8-bit boards that have that, drives me crazy trying to figure out whats going on. At least the new msg pointer for logging in each time seems to work fine. James -

Still does not make sense. I have many sd cards with 8 partitions on them and thousands of files, and they were formated with ICD or HDDriver (same format really) TOS only - and if I open the partitions up on HDD utility, it will show me that they are BGM partitions - aka larger than 32mb (which was the original Atari max) James -

I sent you feedback on the bbs - there is a bit of an issue with the mail/msg system. -
Running Highwire on my TT030 - runs pretty good, but I am missing something in the config or the file structure that is preventing me from loading images on web pages.. is there something I need to set? The documentation for Highwire does not help at all. James

Freeze Dried Terminal - registered?
Bikerbob replied to AtariPhreak's topic in Atari ST/TT/Falcon Computers
Now.. ANYONE found a registered ANSI TERM??????? 1.9?? huh?? -
I got mine and I have tried getting it working on my stfm so far no luck. Running .15 beta, but I am not able to get anything working on my monochrome monitor, wonder if that's the issue. James

Well I have lots of PSU.. my issue is ..if you have 6 of these plugged in.. they warm up the room pretty good. Sigh.. oh well. James

I know this thread is old, but I am trying to reduce my foot print for 9v ac adapters. Anyone know either one large item I can pull multi lines from? or smaller that I could plug a row into a powerbar and be done? I am in Canada, so 110v. Thanks the 31vac.. I assume is a measurement comparable to DC AMPS?? there for the 2A 9VAC is ok?? James

Hey all, I have been moving through a renovation in my home, and now I am back in place setting things up. Pulling out all the bricks again to setup my drives (4) and the 800 the 850 etc.. all of them use the original 9v AC brick. I have an INDUS as well, but not so worried about that. Wondering if anyone has found something say.. 10amps .. that I could wire up all the devices to or get like a small breakout board and wire up 5-6 plugs to it and power all these devices from something newer/ cooler/ and smaller foot print? ANYONE?? James

I have 2 already on the way. Looks like a fun project/device James

Tim, now that you have a sealed box open.. can we get a copy of the original disk from the box uploaded? James

Thanks Tim, things are moving fast and furious here..I missed a whole page of posts!!!

Hey Tim, James (Bikerbob) we met in the zoom meeting. So this is an image on an atari CRT of the dir of the distro disk of Michton 3.0 so we have a MCL.ttp.. which I assume is a CLI for compiling etc.. Any scans of commands etc would be amazing. I would love to look at some of those other builds of boards. Also I wanted one setup on my machine, currently located on drive E: .. I wanted to use a dir, e:/michtron/bbs but it would seem the program is fixed at using /bbs as the dir. Is that correct?
-
Woah??? what manual in PDF?? Michtron 3.0???? James
-
I have 2 on the way to me. Looking forward to giving this a try. Based on the original out of Spain?(aka the sidecart site) Is there a 3d case designed yet? James
