Great. I'm looking forward to getting them. I
haven't found anything
that can read my SB-180 disks so I hven't been able to transfer the ZCPR
to
anything else yet. I think it would be cool to get it
running on a PC!
SB180 disks should read using standard PC FDC and the correct driver.
The problem is they did some weird sector layout but, the SB180 does
use a PC compatable controller (765 core). I can read my SB180 disks
on the Kaypro using 96tpi drives. It may be the disks you have are 48
tpi or they can be 96tpi (user option). I've migrated mine to 3.5"
drives.
I stuck out. I looked through my ZCPR docs and book
but none of them
tell what the differences are between ZCPR3 and ZCPR 2.2. "ZCPR, The
Manual" only gives the differences between ZCPR3 and CP/M 2.2. I don't
know anything about the earlier versions of ZCPR so I guess I'm no
help.
No real difference for the most part. ZCPR3 improved the install process
and added a few utilities.
