I believe I have a cs/100 system disk. I'll check. The disks can
be copied using the DOS diskcopy program according to docs for a
similar box I have here, an IB-1 Internetwork Bridge that I'm actually
using. I have several similar boxes and a couple of disks but I
haven't had time to dig through them yet. I'll let you know what I
find.
If I don't get back to you in the next week or three, ping me about
it...
