When I went to show the little graphics demo I did for you during the NitrOS9 seminar - it crashed. Found out afterwards that the air vent from the projector was blasting right into my Coco which caused it to start overheating. After it cooled down (after the seminar was over, naturally), it worked fine. So I got to show it to people at the Fest... but I don't think you and Taylor have seen it yet. lol.

Now you know another two computers that used it :) The Toshiba T-250 ran CP/M 2.2, had 64k of RAM, 58k TPA, dual 8 inch floppy diskette drives. It had a built-in 12" monochrome monitor. Must have weighed over 100 lbs--no kidding! Also: don't forget that your beautiful Commodore 128 is compatible with your single board in CP/M mode ;)

About CPMtools: They are meant to work only with disk images. On linux, you can also pass them a "/dev/*" device and it will use that. On windows, I haven't tested that. You also need a file called "diskdefs", that has format information for a bunch of disk types. And you have to give each CPMtool a command line option "-f " to tell them which disk format to use.
@fractalMD 2 ай бұрын
Ain't nothing just easy!
@TSteffi 2 ай бұрын
@@fractalMD The issue is, CP/M didn't define a physical format specification. It was left to the system manufacturer to define a floppy format. So now there are tons of different formats, none are compatible with each other, and the disk (or image) itself doesn't tell you what it is. The manufacturer would put this information in the DPB, Disk Parameter Block, which is part of the BIOS. So it is technically stored on the boot tracks, but since the location isn't specified, we can't use it. Modern implementations of CP/M 2.2 often use a format that uses 8 MB images on a larger disk, because that was the maximum size of a drive under CP/M 2 and also MP/M 2. But some also have custom definitions. You will have to ask the developers of your board for the format they used. I looked at the documentation for the Glitchworks board and it doesn't say which format they use. But it says the internal flash that is used as A: drive should have PCGET and PCPUT for up/downloading files, using the Xmodem protocol that is supported by TeraTerm. So that is one way to get stuff onto your board.
