Mine appears to have been corrupted and my 9100FT won't boot with it. Mine is labeled "U36 V1.0", 8-pin device. No PDFs online that are easily found with standard search, need to dig out my old Xilinx book. I have uploaded it: (not corrupt - renamed) ftp://ttl.arcadetech.org//home/mirrors/flippers/TTL/Test_Equipment/Fluke/9100%20Series/9100base/9100FT_U36_XC1765_V1-0.zip The zipped previously marked as U36 archive on TTL in the same directory was incorrectly labeled, it was actually the EPROM U26, not the NVRAM U36. I have fixed the file name and text message inside. Thanks, John :-#)#
I will try dumping mine early next week, unless someone gets to it before me.
False alarm Turns out it was something else that stopped the boot process. My NVRAM appears to be valid after all. I will update the file name on TTL.
Also, the SCSI2SD Rv5 does not work on the FT, the RV3 does, as
does the Aztec Monster. Not sure why, RV3 has the same SD card as
the RV5 I tried, but the 5 just locked up the machine. Worked once
or twice, but mostly locked up when it gets to the load the
operating system.
