Do you have Venix ???
#969

I have recently purchased a copy of Venix (essentially v7 unix) for
the Rainbow (thanks Dan !) . I am looking for someone who has a later
version than mine ( I have 2.0), as mine only supports a hard disk
with 4 surfaces (I have an RD53 w/ 8.) I got Venix 2.0 installed just 
fine on a friend's 20 Meg drive which he loaned me for experimentation,
and even got UUCP working ( no small feat, given the weak documentation.)
However, that drive has 4 surfaces. On my drive, Venix skips tracks
in groups of 4 ( It writes 4 tracks, then skips 4 tracks.) I know that
there is a later version that supports the RD53. If you have it, please 
send me some e-mail or reply through this group, so we can talk. 
I really need some help with this, as the company that most recently sold 
Venix ( Boston Software Works) no longer sells or supports it in any way.
 
If you know anything about this, or know anybody who knows anything, 
PLEASE HELP !
