Subject: Epsom QX-10 == HELP!

Hi,

   I have acquired an Epsom QX-10 with manuals but there is a
wee problem - it doesn't have a boot disc! (I hasten to add
that I didn't buy this but was asked to check it). Epsom were
asked about this machine but didn't know anything about it so
this is about the only place I can ask - if it's an FAQ (which
I somewhat doubt {8-) then please mail me the FAQ list!

   The manuals say that this machine requires MultiFonts CP/M
which was an extension of CP/M 2.2 I believe.

   My question is this :

   (i) Does anyone have a system disc on 5.25 inch floppy - I
       can snail mail a disc for copying onto.

  (ii) Does anyone know where I can ftp the files from - I may
       be able to create a boot disc from another machine if
       someone would tell me the disc format in terms of sector
       and track layout at byte level (I love a hack!)

 (iii) Any other ideas on how to get this machine running?

   Replies via email please (unless you feel that the rest of
Usenet may benefit from the information {8-)
