Hi Don:
Yes! Using the " key for drive-B boot on the Osborne worked.
And this double-density unit booted with my single-density software.
That's the first the machine has booted cp/m. When I try to access drive
A, it sounds like the stepper is constantly driving the head against a
stop. I'll need to check the drive out.
It didn't want to format a disk properly though. Does this mean that a
proper double-density version of cp/m is needed?
I need to get a pc together to run this 22DISK I've been hearing about.
thanks,
gil
