Hi
It is likely that your backup software changed
the updated bit on this file. Most loaders are too
simple minded and are not able to handle simple
changes like this in the file status fields.
If you can find another machine with the ability
to edit the disk, you can most likely modify this
in the directory by editing this bit.
And, why don't you subscribe?

I've just discovered that my MD-11 system won't boot due to some kind of
corruption, and I don't have boot diskettes or the distro.
CP/M V3.0 Loader

CPMLDR error: failed to read CPM3.SYS
I had just completed a backup (or so I thought) using fullback, but when
powered down and started up again today the above message is the result.
Does anyone have the distribution diskettes for the MD-11 that I could arrange
to get copies of or teledisk images of? Or possibly even just a boot
diskette/image for the MD-11? Tried my MD3 and MD2 diskettes already, but
as expected they don't boot the MD-11.
I'd love to chat with others who have MD-11's as well. :)
Please CC me directly, as I don't subscribe--only read the list via the web.
