Hi
He should also be aware of the manuals at:
http://www.spies.com/~aek/pdf/digitalResearch/
and
http://www.retrocomputing-world.com/biblio/cpu/z8000/z8000.html
Chris and I are working on getting CPM-8000 up and running on
our M20's. It has been a slow project. I just yesterday figured
out how to get the machines to take 512K of RAM ( CPM8000
needed 128K of free RAM and the normal 224K system was
not big enough ).
Chris is already quite handy with the assembler but I've
mostly been looking at hardware issues with the help of the
manuals from Hans Pufal. Progress is being made but it
is slow. It takes me several hours to pull the 16K DRAMs
to stick in 64K one on the expansion boards. I currently
only have one card modified for a total of 256K ( w/ motherboard ).
When I do all three, I'll be at 512K ( a power user ).
