Several times I have met this picture:
Do you know, who has this interface?
I am interested in image of the two leftmost EPROMs (EDIT and DEMO PROGS), just to try to analyse structure of the ROM disk (because I want to place the 68k/OS utilities, which are stored on microdrive, onto the ROMdisk - this will be useful to store the utilities in an image for internet download or for use with emulators, as now you cannot have an image of a 68k/OS formatted microdrive).
Don't you know?
I already asked Urs König. Someone else?
68k/OS additional ROMs
Re: 68k/OS additional ROMs
I used to have one of the 68K/OS boards and cartridges, which I think ended up with Marcel Kilgus.

Re: 68k/OS additional ROMs
For those who ever wanted an original GST Sinclair QL EPROM expansion card with their 68K/OS Z570V218 and the associated Microdrive Cartridges 68K/OS and 68K/ASM, there's currently a set on ebay (ending 2024-04-24):
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/305516991319
BTW: This auction also includes HiSoft DevpacQL and CP/MULATOR. I'm not the seller nor related to him.
It would be great if someone of the QL community would take good care of it and - after refelting the Microdrive Cartridges - make backup copies of those Microdrive Cartridges. Maybe one day, someone adds 68K/OS Microdrive support/emulation in a Q-Emulator or even on hardware Microdrive substitutes.

Re: 68k/OS additional ROMs
This is probably the worst thing you could have done if you wanted it preserved, I know some preservation people were intending to bid on that, but now they are likely to be outbid by collectors now they know its "RARE" thanks to these posts!QLvsJAGUAR wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2024 8:02 am For those who ever wanted an original GST Sinclair QL EPROM expansion card with their 68K/OS Z570V218 and the associated Microdrive Cartridges 68K/OS and 68K/ASM, there's currently a set on ebay (ending 2024-04-24):

Re: 68k/OS additional ROMs
Got your point. Maybe. But better some community members of the forum to buy it than some random ebayer. That was my thought.XorA wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2024 9:17 amThis is probably the worst thing you could have done if you wanted it preserved, I know some preservation people were intending to bid on that, but now they are likely to be outbid by collectors now they know its "RARE" thanks to these posts!QLvsJAGUAR wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2024 8:02 am For those who ever wanted an original GST Sinclair QL EPROM expansion card with their 68K/OS Z570V218 and the associated Microdrive Cartridges 68K/OS and 68K/ASM, there's currently a set on ebay (ending 2024-04-24):

BTW: I have such a unit in my collection for about 15 years now and tried my best to make backup copies of Microdrive cartridges back then. But what I failed at (yet), is to transfer the files to another medium or the PC.
