Subject: Compupro - MP/M 8-16 info wanted
A while back, I got a compupro system. Unfortunatly, the supply of
documentation is limited.
It came with G & G's MP/M 8-16 (I am assuming that G & G engineering
took standard MP/M and added
goodies to it). I suspect that it is missing some of the utilities, but
I cannot be sure, due to
the missing documentation.
1) What is the proper way to put it into multi-user. I tried to do it
by typing "logout" and
get a login prompt at the terminals (currently only two). I can login,
but it does not seem to
recognize that a user on on the system. For example, I sent my self
mail, I looked at it manually,
but I cannot read it with mail ("you have no mail"). What am I doing wrong?
2) How do I set the default buad rate on the console port. It wants to
be 19.2 at power-up. I can
change it to 9600 after I issue the "logout", but it goes back to 19.2
after reset or power-up.
3) What would be a default set of parameters for a gen. I have them for
standard Digital Research
MP/M, but G & G appears to be different. I have looked at things on the
disks that I have, but
they look like they are not "standard".
4) Any other information they you might have on this system.
