Subject: Misc CP/M and S-100 questions, if you please.
Hi,
I have some CP/M and S-100 questions, so I thought I'd make
one post with many questions. I'd appreciate if anyone who knows the
answers could send me mail.
1. Re: Warm Booting. I know some programs expect that the OS will
be "warm booted" when they end. Does that mean I have to keep
my system disk in drive A:?
2. Can I ever copy a file from a second disk to a third disk by starting
PIP and then removing my system disk and putting on the two disks
in A: and B:? I've tried this and my system locks up. I can PIP
from B: to my system disk in A: and vice versa. I would really like
it if I didn't have to keep the CP/M disk in A:
3. I recently got some space S-100 cards. I would like to hear from
anybody who has the same hardware for some interface questions.
a. HDC-2001 Hard Disk Interface from Advanced Digital Corp -
what kind of HD's will this work with? Can anybody
share BIOS modifications, maybe for a CCS system?
b. Advanced Digital "Super SIX" single board S-100 computer.
Any comments?
c. A 48 TPI 5 1/4" disk - has anyone interfaced one with
a CCS FDC?
Thanks for your help (in advance),
Steven Christensen
