For some reason my reply didn't make it yesterday. I'll try again. Yeah, it seems that lack of disk space is a concern for all of us Apollo owners. We are so spoiled with our 16GB thumbdrives in the modern world...:) Anyway, my concern is that with SR9.7.5 you will have to deal wiht the date bug - meaning that you will have to set the clock back on your machine to the 80s or else it will crash. Also, you wont have TCP/IP unless you have the package for that and so you wont have any TCP/IP tools like ftp and telnet. Plus Im not sure if you can even have a SR10 and SR9.7.5 on the same ring..I know the registries are not compatible....I have a DN3500 that runs a pretty loaded version of SR9.7.5 with the TCP/IP package and compilers, etc..I wonder if images can be made of that whole system? Does anyone know? Maybe if i put a second 380-FA disk on it and then WBAK the whole OS to it and then ftp the image off the machine?
