I don't keep up with CP/M etc but I thought I recall it being
announced that Don Maslin's lost archive had been recovered?
Here's the archive
http://www.retroarchive.org/maslin/
P112 I think is way newer than anything related though.
Correct.
On the 8" drive question, I haven't done it myself, but I've received reports
from people who've successfully used them with the P112. It involves pretending
they're HD 5.25" drives and using a hardware shim to deliver more current when
writing to tracks greater than X. I don't recall the specifics though.
BTW, I'm the one who's been selling them since Dave Brookes stopped doing so.
I'm out of boards again and probably won't be doing any more runs with
surface-mounts preinstalled on account of the difficulty of finding large quantities of
new and pristine super-IO chips. I might do a new run of naked boards.
