Subject: Boot disk for an iBEX 7102 requested - newbie

Hi CP/Mers,

  I was recently given an iBEX 7102 CP/M machine and CP/M 2.2 manual but
no ?Boot? (Utility) disk (book says 1 of 1 disk).  The machine appears
to have some sort of bootstrap in ROM as upon startup the screen
displays:

V3.2
*

It seems to only allow two digit codes for first four lines (each starts
with a '*') and then the '>' appears and a disk read begins.

The CP/M manual specifies a date of '82 but the machine seems quite 
large for a computer of that vintage.  Made in Japan for NA market,
no date actually stamped on the machine itself, just serial #, etc.

Additional info:  disks believed to be DSDD ~400k.

Thanks in advance to anyone offering any constructive information
or advice.

Actually an OLDBIE, first introduced to CP/M on a DEC Rainbow (disks
from which are long lost).
