if you are willing to be a bit dangerous (carefully) take the cover off of
the monitor. All of the IBM monitors that I have looked at have size
adjustments inside, clearly marked on one of the boards. Usually they are
made small for a reason though (like the borders really suck).
Also, you can get software over to it by hooking it up to a PC over a
serial cable and transferring stuff that way. Get kermit over first, and
then use that to get szrz over and you should be set. You should also be
able to read dos disks...look in /usr/ibm and see if there are dosdir,
dosread, and doswrite you should be able to read dos disks with those
commands. If not there may be another way, but we were never able to get
tar files to be read directly (using rawrite on a dos machine or just cp
on my netbsd machine).
finally, try getting netbsd to work. It is really cool...very stable, and
should be pretty familiar to you if you have an rt running bsd.
