My model 16 when I had it could boot p&t cp/m and cp/m 68k fine and it had
the standard roms.
Can you boot trsdos on it?

Okay, now here's one where I need some help,
having nothing to
compare with.
I have a TRS-80 model 16 here that boots Aton CP/M (CP/M 2.2 and CP/M
68K) just fine. In theory, I should also be able to boot any TRS-80
Model 2 or 12 system also, at least from what I gathered.
But I can't boot a Pickles and Trout floppy--the boot sector is read
and the select light on the drive goes out. Nothing more.
Similarly, a friend with a Model 2 can't boot the Aton CP/M floppy
that boots on mine.
Are there different ROMs for the P&T and the Aton? What am I
missing?
