Check and Mate
Hi
I knew I shouldn't have moved the Checkmate again. I just needed more
desk space to use it. I tidied all the cables and the like up which
amount to a lot. It has different power for main unit and the A590. The
Checkmate uses a converted PC PSU and the cables are all over the place.
Anyway, I started to get an error on the external SCSI drive that is
connected to the 590. I decided it was time to back it up. First problem
was installing stuff like DOpus and CED so I could edit. I also added a
user-startup to S as this is a 2.05 Workbench and it doesn't exist.
DOpusIV is working now along with CED so I have the quite mammoth task
of backing up 16MB of hard drive onto DDs. Fortunately the machine has
an external array of floppy drives. I'm not tempted to move the machine
again to add a Parnet. My luck the thing would completely fall over.
See how I get on. I like a challenge.
