The Desk System Centurion Lives!

Last time we were up in Cincinnatti working on the Butler Tech Desk System Centurion system, we got it really close, it was actually booting fully into the operating system. However, a dodgy ribbon cable blew some holes through the data on the disk, corrupting our operating system install and hampering the usability of the machine. Without a removable platter, it’s a proper challenge, but we developed a bit of software that should make it properly easy. So of course, nothing goes according to plan…
