Kaypro II system disk?

He was able to help me ID which disk was appropriate, and send me one. which is, unfortunately, not with the Kaypro :-( I haven't had much to say about the CP/M archive, but as I do have a few machines (Kaypro and S-100), I have an interest in what happens. Personally, I don't see why we shouldn't start a parallel archive, just in case, at least of some of the more common formats. It would be a life's work (literally) to build an archive as extensive as Don's, but for most of us here, I would think that a dozen or two disks would meet most of our needs (Kaypro, Osbourne, NorthStar...) I have no strong opinion about disk archiving format, as long as there's a way to reconstitute disks. Yes, I know that one might have to keep around an ancient DOS box, but in the grand scheme of things, I don't see why one can't/shouldn't keep around one mini-tower with a network card and a sub-gig disk and a 5.25" floppy. If one is dabbling in CP/M, one probably has space for one commodity PC to remake disks. If nothing else, I will keep one around for the existing base of teledisk-imaged DECmate II and Pro3xx RX50s. -ethan
