Hey Doug,
I have one of those (Series III) machines and should have both ISIS-II
and CP/M (maybe even CP/M Plus). The 225 has an internal single density
diskette drive and may have external double density drives. What format
would you want the operating systems on if I can get my computer
working. It hasn't been turned on it a while, but the last time I tried
to use it it worked.
Let me know and I'll try to help.
BTW, even though the "off the shelf" CP/M will boot, I have written an
enhanced bios that supports both the double density drives and the
internal single density drive. All this is kind of fuzzy, but if my
machine will boot, it will all come back to me and I'll copy it for you.
Take care,
Dave

Hello folks...
I've been trying to get an operating system for my MDS 225 series 3 on 8"
disks.
I've read that it uses ISIS (Intel System Implementation Supervisor)
and that it can also run CP/M (GENERIC) according to Joe's web site
http://www.intellistar.net/~rigdonj/mds.htm
However, I've tried to email joe at
rigdonj(a)intellistar.net
But the mail bounces as undelivered.
Any ideas?
