Hella Gutmann "Mega Macs" HDD or eMMC images ?

Unread post by RTSKxx »

Greetings,

for educational pruposes Im looking for backups of HDDs, CF-Cards and eMMCs, of Hella Gutmann "Mega Macs" devices.

Old devices had HDDs with DOS and/or Windows CE, for example, while later ones used Linux and eMMCs and/or CF-Card Systems.

I already learned that is is hard to find these. Maybe someone could help here ?

Thanks in advance !

Making (very) slow progress.
The mainboard of a "mega macs 66" would turn out as a EPC5600C (up to Rev.1.1) industrial PC with:

-a Texas Instruments PC97317-ICL/VUL Super I/O Controller
-a GEODE GLX SCO (x86) ? (same GEODE logo on the Texas Instruments I/O Controller)
-a pheonix BIOS D486
-a Realtek RTL8139C Networkchip
-a Winbond W83977EF-AW Super I/O Chip (IRQ,DMA, ACPI, 16bit)
-4x MOSEL VITELIC 8MBitx16 @166MHz
-a CF-Card slot
-a Network Socket
-PCI Slots and various "IDE"-Connectors


The 256/512MB CF-Cards alone providing "special (update) data" (?) to the Linux inside the 32GB eMMC . (?)

Back to work...

Never used or even heard of any of these I'm afraid.

I need to correct my previous post. The MegaMacs 66 would already be an ARM CPU without a UEFI/BIOS.

The MegaMacs 55 would be the industrial PC with Pheonix BIOS.
