Have:
working K10
working HDD
Need:
Someone who cna install the OS onto the K10.
I have tried for some time, but it's not happening, and I think it's
time to call in some help. Anyone want some monetary compensation to
load a working copy of CP/M onto the drive I have?

Hi Jim,
Contact me off-list and I +think+ I can help you.
I have a working Kaypro 10 here, which boots from the internal HDD just
fine. It also has one or two functional 5-1/4" floppy drives.

Jim, what problems are you having? I thought the disks I sent you were
ok.

The disks read fine (thanks again), as far as I can tell.
But, numerous attempts to get the data onto the drive have been
unsuccessful.
I boot the unit with disk 1.
CP/M 2.2
"submit reload"
-> putsys
-> putovl
-> findbad
-> findbad
Now, sometimes it warm boots and does not finish, but I just tried it
again and it then does:
pip b:=a:*.*[g1ov]
NOT FOUND A:*. *G10V
"user 10"
"dir"
shows no files
I am sure it's a simple issue, but I've just had so little success I
figure it's time to pay for someone to help, and get it off my bench
(it's been sitting for ages, as I got so frustrated with it a while
back, I left it so I would not toss it out the window in anger).
If I boot with the disk out of the drive, I do get a boot on the HDD, so
I think the HDD and the controller are OK.

Are you sure there's supposed to be data there? I've never done a
from-scratch install on the K10, so I'm not sure what the process is.

"user 10"
"dir"
shows no files
Just to be sure, I downloaded a new copy of the image from the
maslin files,
put it on a new 360kB disk, popped it into the k10, did user 10, dir, and NO
FILES

Well, I would not know for sure, but the submit reload command you're
supposed to run does:
putsys
putovl
pip b:=a:*.*[g10v]
and I read up on g10v, and it says that means to copy files from the
user 10 area.

Hrm. Have you checked the other user areas on the disk to see if there's
stuff in places other than user 0?
