Anyways here's the missing bits --Steve.] Hello Netland. I presently have an UNIXpc (7300) running UNIX Rel3.0 and also have the DOS-73 coprocessor and all seems to be working well. I purchased the 7300 used and didn't receive any of the install diskettes for the DOS-73. ;-( Yes, I sometimes never, almost occasionally dabble in DOS. ;-) So first of all is the DOS-73 software, for 3.0, binary compatable with 3.51? Anybody have this? Also if it's that easy I'm still not sure which pieces/ parts are the DOS-73 software? Can anybody look at the install script and help me out there? Assuming that it's not compatible. How do I go about getting the DOS-73 software I need? I want to upgrade to UNIX Rel3.51 a.s.a.p. but do not really want to loose the coprocessor. Anyone willing to peek at the install script for the DOS-73 board so I can determine what is DOS-73 software. Any other suggestions as to how to tackle this problem? Anyone got for sale a 8087 FPA for this turkey? soooo slooowwww.... And as always, Thanks for your help. _____________________________________________________ Steve Hurrell {utai,utzoo}!sq!steve SoftQuad Inc. att!utgpu!sq!steve 720 Spadina Ave., Ste. 200 Bus: (416)963-8337 Toronto, ON M5S2T9 CANADA Res: (416)947-9007 -- _____________________________________________________ Steve Hurrell {utai,utzoo}!sq!steve SoftQuad Inc. att!utgpu!sq!steve 720 Spadina Ave., Ste. 200 Bus: (416)963-8337
