It looks like I'll have to pick up another 4k SRAM board
before I even begin to try and boot CP/M then, as my S-100 system
only has 12k (1-8k, 1-4k). It had 40k in it at one point but the
other boards are long gone. I have to make a minor solder repair to
the powerboard for the floppy still, but after that I'll be trying to
boot CP/M 1.30 from Lifeboat Associates from a North Star disk
system. Now that my move is almost here, I can start thinking about
working on this machine again.
