Booting DOS from a 10' vinyl

November 23, 2020

I saw an interesting blog post at boingboing.net today: Booting DOS from vinyl. The original blog post is by Bogin, JR - Booting from a vinyl record. The author walks through capturing audio of vinyl playing DOS code and then processing it as a DOS boot process like a cassette player. It is pretty cool.
