Hello everyone! The good folks over at google groups sys.ibm.as400.misc suggested I might get some guidance over at MIDRANGE-L ...



Long story short. I acquired a beautiful condition 9404 C10 (or maybe E10?) fully loaded with all sorts of goodies which I was able to get running DST using a 5291 terminal (the thing is huge!) In my blissful ignorance I managed to delete the ASP (and the missing drive which was preventing IPL) and wreck the whole machine (no DST available anymore, no console prompt) Needless to say I have no backup tape.



Guys I cannot kick my lovely AS/400 to the curb. I just can't do it!!



I really want to get all my three terminals I have up and running, make my own 1980s office - maybe see if I can do a spot of word processing or something... maybe even Tetris :-) (http://www.geocities.ws/victorav15/fintet/vvastet.html)



Any thoughts?

Andy





PS the reason for my hesitation over the exact model number is because it is a cream-coloured AS/400. However control panel command 20 says "9404 0E10" which from what I can tell are the newer black ones



PPS here's the original as400.misc thread https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/comp.sys.ibm.as400.misc/u2dZiOfSCeI
