You need the Kaypro 10 CP/M 2.2G Reload Disk Set (14 disks), which you can
get from Don Maslin, keeper of the CP/M disk archives (donm_at_cts.com), for
$3/first disk and $1/additional. The man's a saint.
The 10 will work with up to 8 heads and, I believe, 306 cylinders.
A Kaypro 10 manual would be helpful too, I got mine from my local Kaypro
users group (yes, they still exist, all four guys of them).
Some other stuff is available from The Computer Journal

Subject: Formatting a Kaypro 10 Hard Drive
Just purchased a kaypro 10 Computer.
The Hard Drive is Dead..
As I understand it has an MFM type drive..
I have several old drives (ST 225) from old XT's that I could replace
the bad one with.. (If possible)..
My knowledge is limited on CP/M.. Even more limited with on CP/M on Hard
Drives..
Being a computer tech I formatted hundreds of old MFM type drives on
XT's but this thing is very different..
I don't know where to start on this project. Can anyone help?
Thanks..
Phil....
