Yes, I was able to determine that the TurboDOS 1.41c disks which would complete my particular setup do exist and that they are in good hands, however I have not been able to get copies of the disks as of yet. I'm hoping that patience will prevail and perhaps another copy will turn up or the

Good news in the meantime: I did a fair bit of testing last night and I have a good terminator, 2 good cables, one good RLV12, and one good RL02. The second RL02 was odd: It would spin up, come to ready with no problems. However when I tried to boot it would endlessly seek a few tracks in a
