All:
I looked at the CompuPro disk image on Dave Dunfield's site and it's
for an 8" drive. The defining thing for me is getting a CP/M 2.2 image in
5.25" format. I've found another controller, from CCS (California Computer
Systems) that might work, too. So does anyone have a 5.25" CP/M 80 image for
either of these two boards?
Thanks.
Rich
All my CCS disks are 8" I'd have to look to see if the controller even did
5.25 it's been so long. I do remember the CCS used a banking scheme that
didn't agree with most of my systems.
I decided to pull out the CCS system and check. I'd forgotten as it
smaller than most s100 crates and it gets tucked away easily. It does
do 5.25" though the docs refer to 8" disti media only.
The Eprom on mine has the MOSS monitor and boot, IO expects standard CCS.
If you have CCS IO you at least have a monitor.
