Subject: *DRIVE and Torch Z80
Hi all,
Is there a way I can *CONFIGURE (or otherwise effect) my Master 128 to
default to drive 1 instead of drive 0. It isn't a major crisis, more a
nuisance having to remember to switch it every time I use the computer.
This is of course in relation to the home-made '3.5" drive from a PC' that
I'm using.
Also, I can't get any sense from my internal Torch Z80 co-processor. I can
*MCP into the ROM based CP/M ok, but then it informs me it is 'Attempting
Connection to.....' for about a minute before returning a 'Press any key to
continue...' error and eventually displaying a disk fault before repeating
the whole process ad infinitum. My sole experience of CP/M was seeing it
running on an Amstrad CPC664 in the late 80's. Perhaps I need some
disk-based software to complement the CP/M Rom (or perhaps my Torch card is
dead?) There's very little information available on this kit, so if anyone
could help I'd be very grateful.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Austin.
