@Anna: Thanks for posting the setup procedure here.
Some notes: The setup disk has been composed by me, so this is nothing you will find out there. You may get the required programs from the known sources (whtech).
As a high-level recipe the setup process is as follows:
- Create a hard disk using chdman - Format the hard disk using Myarc Disk Manager V on the TI-99/4A - Boot the Geneve using a floppy disk with the files SYSTEM/SYS and LOAD/SYS on it - Copy the SYSTEM/SYS into the hard disk's root directory - Create a directory named DSK1 in the HD's root directory and copy the LOAD/SYS file into it - If you want a TI-99 simulation on the Geneve, copy the GPL interpreter on your HD (multi-file program, usually named GPL, GPM, GPN, ...) - Create a suitable AUTOEXEC on your HD
I will collect all those hints on my Ninerpedia wiki.
These kinds of tutorials would be a perfect content of a MESS wiki ... if anybody cared. Why don't we just make use of it again?
