That is a good question!  Nikoniko was hosting them on furthervoyages.com but now it's... a commercial travel website ?  (if we're lucky he might add them to his new 2MHz site). Airship was also hosting some PDFs but those links are now bad too.

Another member, Andrew Wiskow, is hosting several hardware related PDFs at http://cottonwood.servebbs.com/wiskow/.  The C128 User guide and some more hardware docs are at http://commodore128.org/hardware.html.

Why don't we try to get them hosted at ZIMMERS with all the other Commodore files? Last time I emailed Bo he said he had lots of space....

I would be happy to host those PDF files at retroarchive.org as well.

I'm just wondering if we can get a status update on the PDF archive.  None of the old links seem to be working.  If it's just a matter of where to host it, I'd be happy to host the files on my site (especially since there's some space cleared up now due to the vacancy left by the removal of the CMD ROMs and docs).

Thanks, Lance...  But that link is broken.  This forum doesn't seem to like linking to FTP sites.

I think Lance used "Insert Hyperlink" instead of "Insert FTP Link". Try this :)

So, without further ado, here are the links to the books I've posted. Enjoy.

The C128 Service Manual (converted from images) - http://home.mchsi.com/~airship1/C128_Service_Manual.pdf
The 1571 Service Manual (converted from HTML) - http://home.mchsi.com/~airship1/1571_Service.pdf
The 6526 CIA Spec Sheet (converted from HTML) - http://home.mchsi.com/~airship1/6526_Spec.pdf
Mapping the C128 (pages split and reordered) - http://home.mchsi.com/~airship3/Mapping_the_C128.pdf
Machine Language for Beginners (as found) - http://home.mchsi.com/~airship3/ml-bgnr.pdf
Machine Language for the C64 and Other Commodore Computers (unfortunately NOT the updated one with C128 info) - http://home.mchsi.com/~airship4/mlcom.pdf
BASIC 8 Manual -(converted from text)  http://home.mchsi.com/~airship4/Basic8.pdf
How to Get the Most Out of BASIC 8 (as found) - http://home.mchsi.com/~airship4/Most_Basic8.pdf

Ray Carlsen's Technical Notes for the C128 (compiled and converted from text) - http://home.mchsi.com/~airship1/Carlsen.pdf

Can anyone tell me where to find these files? Just got back into the C= scene. Looks like they would be some good reading..
Any help/info would be great.

I also run an FTP server and would host these files IF they can be found...

TIA...
