I went back to look at it last week for the first time in six years. It
certainly works well enough to run a whole bunch of diagnostics,
according to the notes I left back in 2008.
More documentation on the disk peripherals has surfaced in recent years,
and some of them would need to be implemented to have a reasonable shot
at running the OS. In addition, IIRC, the peripheral simulation is not
as accurate as it needs to be, particularly on status codes and error
conditions.
I hope to get back to the Sigma in the fall, but in the meantime, feel
free to work on it and fix any bugs you find.

TEXT/PLAIN; format=flowed; charset=US-ASCII Hello, The unfinished
sigma simulator dumps core on quit...which I find interesting. Will
look in to finding out /why/. Not that the simulator really works
otherwise, mind...;)
