Subject: Can anyone answer a few of hopefully simple CPM questions?

I have been installing an Advent hard disk upgrade to my Kaypro 1 and
a couple of questions have come up:

       What is the difference between stock CPM 2.2, 2.2G, and 2.2E?

       When I install NovaDOS, it appears that changing floppy disks
       is not handled properly if the new disk is a different format.
       Is there a simple way to have the BDOS signal the Advent BIOS
       to check the disk format and correct the parameter tables?

       Is there any place where the contents of the Advent BIOS high
       memory is documented? For example, I believe address FFF7 or
       thereabouts, I've forgotten the exact location, points to drive
       tables. If you could point me to an old Dr. Dobbs or Profiles
       article, that would be great.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
