Hello David,
Thanks so much for your help-
Here is what I have so far...
Sector 0 CF
Sector 63 CF
Sector 127 CF
Sector 151 CF
So far, so good as I can tell.
Now, I do as you suggest, I use "I". then read the sector to buffer at 0100H and it looks good to me:
Examining memory at 0100 through the monitor looks just like this - so, what can I try next? Seems very close but the CPM3.SYS is not executing properly?
Thanks,
Thomas

Now that I have my IDE card passing all the preliminary tests, I am trying to install CP/M on the Compact Flash drive and get the system to boot.
System:
Compupro ZPU at 2 mhz.
IDE CF Card, version 2.0a
IMSAI SIO for console
Ram 17 with Eprom installed at ‘E000’
8 gb Kingston CF
Have read, and re-read all the articles I can on the site, and decided to use the method put together by David Fry found here.

20System%20Pages/IDE%20Board/ Z80%20CP_M%203.0%20build.pdf
Step 1 - I modified HLDRBIOS.ASM to support my Console device (IMSAI SIO)
Step 2 - I modified CHARIO3.ASM to support my Console device
Step 3 - Assembled and built the CPMLDR.COM
Step 4 - Copied it to the CF at Sector 0
Step 5 - Assembled and built the CPM3.SYS and copied it to the CF at sector 112
Step 6 - Moved sector 48 to sector 63 on the CF
I know the install is not complete, but at this point I wanted to see what a ‘Boot’ looked like from David’s MYIDEROM:
At boot I see displayed on the console and MYIDEROM reports this drive information:
Cyl: 3C82 Heads: 010 Sectors: 0048
Then I choose ‘C’ for Boot CP/M and here is where I see a problem:
Notice the ‘LBA = 003C003C’. Why is that value so high and incorrect?
Any suggestions to getting is completed?
Thanks in advance,
Thomas
