The
H-37 Diagnostic disk is a self-booting disk that tests the H-37
controller card. It was included with the original H-37 controller card
kit.
This archive contains all of the HUG Library (part numbers 885-xxxx)
that we were able to acquire. I will update the library as more disk
images are added.

Complete Set Volume 5 (71 disk images - 2.7 MB) Volume
5 Contents Volume 6 contains a collection of software from Skip Chambers that
includes modified versions of HDOS. They are called OMDOS, or
One Module HDOS, and SmallDOS.
There are DOC files on the disks that explain the differences and how
to set up a version of this OS on your Z80 H8 or H89 system.
Volume 6 contains some high capacity (up to 200K) disk images and requires H8DIMGR and the H8D Utility 1.51. SEBHC

H8D Utility V1.51by Les Bird A
utility program to help manage H8D disk image files. Includes a

H8DIMGR disk transfer utility for 100K, 200K and 400K hard sector disks (HDOS and CPM) (8080 ASM Source Code) H8DIMGR is a utility by Les
Bird that runs on a Heathkit computer and transfers hard sector disk
images of any type via a serial port to the H8DUtility V1.51 or later
running on a PC. H8DIMGR is
the preferred method for sending disk images (instead of SDUP-SP) as it
will work with any hard sector disk type, HDOS or CPM, 100K, 200K or
400K, and will automatically detect the disk type. To use this utility
download the file from the link above then transfer the disk image to a
Heathkit computer using H89LDR or the H8DUtility. Boot with the new
disk and run H8DIMGR2.ABS then launch H8DUtility V1.51, click the
CREATE button then click the Client Status button. If you have a good
serial connection then you should see "Client is ready" in the
H8DUtility log and can now send or receive disk images to the Heathkit
computer.
SDUP-SP disk image transfer utility for 100K, 200K and 400K hard sector disks (ReadMe.txt) SDUP-SP is a modified version
of Pat Swayne's SDUP (Super Duper Disk Duplicator) for HDOS. The
original SDUP program is part of the HUG Library (885-1121A and
885-1121B). It supports duplicating all supported formats of HDOS disks
(one side 40 track, two side 40 track, one side 80 track and two side
80 track). SDUP-SP adds
support for sending and receiving all supported disk formats over a
serial port connection. This is accomplished by embedding parts of
Dwight Elvey's H89LDR into the SDUP assembly code and changing the SDUP
ASM code flow to skip sections that are not needed. H-19 Emulator V1.17
by Les Bird A software emulator
for the Heathkit H-19 terminal. Written in C# for Windows XP/Vista/7. Documentation XNA run-time

verified to compile by Dan Emrick:

Terry
Gulczynski has disassembled the XCON8 ROM (part #444-70) and
added
very helpful comments to make it more understandable. Eventually we
will incorporate GIDE boot code into the XCON8 ROM for use with theH8-Z80-64 Rev
2CPU
card. The XCON8 ROM is the front panel control code for the Heathkit H8
computer. The commenting of this source file is not 100% complete but
it's a good base for those who want to get started early with their own
modifications.
A rare and valuable find recovered on Dec 9, 2012.
The complete (as far as I know) Don Maslin Boot Disk Archive.
Includes boot disk images for just about every old and long outdated computer ever made including several Heathkit systems.
