According to the Internet - it has a type3/2x type2 pcmcia in addition to parallel and serial port?

Maybe something like: https://www.amazon.com/PCMCIA-Compact-Flash-Type-Adapter/dp/... could work?

As far as I can figure out, it should be possible to copy files directly over a serial cable (to/from COM1 on dos, /dev/ttyS0 on Linux).

But for sanity, being able to fix a non-booting disk is recommended, so I'd probably try with a second-hand pcmcia hd, usb adapter or something like the above.

I also learned Ms dos comes with INTERLNK.EXE and INTERSVR.EXE - but I wasn't able to figure out if there's a sane way to talk to that from Linux.
