I was told that Don Maslin can help me with boot disks for some old CP/M
computers. I need boot disks for the following:

Morrow Micro Decision MD 1
Epson QX-10
several different Kaypro models

I tried to make a boot disk for the Morrow using 22disk and the 'STDCPM22'
file at 'www.retroarchive.org'. 22disk did not have a file format for the
Morrow MD 1, so I used the format for the Morrow MD 2. (As far as I have
been able to find out, the MD1 had full height floppy disk drives and the
MD2 had half-height drives, but they were the same capacity). When I tried
to use the floppy to boot the computer, it would spin for about 15 seconds,
then the computer would reboot.

I was making the boot disk on a computer which had a 360K floppy drive.

Thanks!
