- I have a newer version of ndfs, let's see what it says about the image now

Ok, at least I know that something is wrong with the image.
- 2016
I took out the hard drive from the ND-110, connected it to my SCSI machine, and made an image of the disk (516 MB / 540 MB) with dd:
root@music1# dd if=/dev/da0 of=/home/tingo/work/sintran_iii_m05_q_lps540.image bs=2048 264404+0 records in 264404+0 records out 541499392 bytes transferred in 409.213307 secs (1323269 bytes/sec)
I transferred this image to my workstation and ran ndfs on it:
tingo@kg-core1$ ndfs -V ndfs: Sintran Filesystem tool version 1.1
tingo@kg-core1$ ndfs -i sintran_iii_m05_q_lps540.image Directory name : Object file index pointer : 0 SI: 0x0 (contiguous) User file index pointer : 0 SI: 0x0 (contiguous) Bit file pointer : 0 SI: 0x0 (contiguous) No. of unreserved pages : 0 Error reading page 3506819073: No error: 0
tingo@kg-core1$ ndfs -ti sintran_iii_m05_q_lps540.image Directory name : Object file index pointer : 0 SI: 0x0 (contiguous) User file index pointer : 0 SI: 0x0 (contiguous) Bit file pointer : 0 SI: 0x0 (contiguous) No. of unreserved pages : 0 Error reading page 3506819073: No error: 0
tingo@kg-core1$ ndfs -tc sintran_iii_m05_q_lps540.image Directory name : Object file index pointer : 0 SI: 0x0 (contiguous) User file index pointer : 0 SI: 0x0 (contiguous) Bit file pointer : 0 SI: 0x0 (contiguous) No. of unreserved pages : 0 Error reading page 3506819073: No error: 0
that doesn't look good.
The image is as large as the hard drive (I'm guessing there is a lot of empty space in it):
tingo@kg-core1$ ll -h *image -rw-r--r-- 1 tingo users - 516M Jul 16 23:23 sintran_iii_m05_q_lps540.image
That's it for now.

The image is available here (376 MB, gzipped) in case anyone wants to analyze it further.
Good image
A "good" image looks like this:
tingo@kg-core1$ ndfs -i ND110-satellite-9883-21251-132MB.raw Directory name : PACK-ONE Object file index pointer : 30716 SI: 0x1 (indexed) User file index pointer : 30718 SI: 0x1 (indexed) Bit file pointer : 30510 SI: 0x0 (contiguous) No. of unreserved pages : 616 Directory size: 60817 pages Bit file size : 4 pages
For what it is worth.
Second start attempt
It tried to start with & and $ from OPCOM, but got the same errors.
First start attempt
After SINTRAN III install succeded (on the 9883.21005 machine), I tried to start it by giving "22!" on the console, like this
22!
(no ENTER key). Unfortunately I get these errors:
***** FATAL ERROR: DISC TRANSFER ERROR IN SEGMENT HANDLING. ***** DEVICE NO.: 2210 T REGISTER: 60 STATUS: 5020 ***** FATAL ERROR: DISC TRANSFER ERROR IN SEGMENT HANDLING. ***** DEVICE NO.: 2210 T REGISTER: 60 STATUS: 5020
Now I must figure out what this error means.
I also tried by starting with the first floppy again and the giving
)HENT 22!
at the console, but I got the same errors.
