BDI EMC software was created by TglEMC

Does anyone know if the BDI EMC software ISO still exists? I have seen some very old threads for this but all the links are dead.
I am building a sherline replacement machine. I have the old Red Hat Debian CD which contains the deb files for BDI-4.51 but it would be much easier to install from an ISO.

That is what I used to install Debian stretch but it does not contain EMC software.

Aw - boo hoo! I have all the Deb's, pieces and parts, I think I can get it installed but is going to be involved. Many dependencies.

I sqw cdvs from. Bdi 2.12 to 2.20. Did not test if those are still readable. Anyhow.
Is the pc so old/embedded that you do not try a newer version.
I remember to the times of bdi... I did not often smiled

The original sherline machine was a brand-new piece of junk. It died. Building a new machine from a better PC. It is an old Amd64 Dell from the Windows vista era. I would welcome newer EMC software. I like the original BDI EMC software. My online searching has not revealed any such software.
