Hi ,
Thanks for your answer.
I should now have a disk with the system and PIP (I don't know whether it
would boot though, I haven't tested it yet)
Anyway I was looking at how I could use PIP to transfer the data but I
only
managed to find some examples
Using the AUX: connector which I think is CP/M 3 (+) and not 2.2 which is
the version on the 820.
Do you know more on how I can use the PIP command ?
Thanks.

You can convert any binary file to intel hex and use pip to save the file,
LOAD.COM will then convert the hex file back to binary.
CP/M documentation is available from (including pip docs):
http://www.cpm.z80.de/
Gaby's site is also useful to make sure you have clean copies of all the
utilities. MOVCPM.COM usually has the manufacturers CBIOS built in and
should not be changed unless you are familiar with installing your own.
Lately I have seen two requests for CP/M help on comp.os.cpm that ended up
being corrupted copies of STAT.COM. One was CP/M 2.2 the other was CP/M-68K
both found what they needed from Gaby's site.
The first thing you should copy is a file transfer program (modem software).
There are lots of programs for that (modem7, move-it, etc).
Move-it is available on my site.
If you are interested in CP/M you may want to try out comp.os.cpm.
