Re: [N8VEM-S100:4453] Re: CPM3 Disk Image - quick start and Images posted

Hi Leonard,

I have just checked both propeller images (banks and non-banked) and they both boot fine on my system.

I'm not sure how you are loading the image onto the card but grab yourself a copy of HxD and open the card to see if everything looks laid out correctly

http://mh-nexus.de/en/hxd/

refer to the docs I uploaded yesterday if you need to. If the layout looks fine then the problem lies elsewhere

regards

Hi Leonard,

I'm not sure if Dave (yoda) has his propeller console card working yet so I don't know if the prop console versions have been tested.

I will try to find the time tonight to test them on my system.

will get back to you

regards

Having trouble getting my system to boot CPM from the CF card.

I have just the following loaded in my backplane:

4Meg mem. board with 1 pair of chips

Prop I/O card

The Z80 CPU

and the IDE card.

I am using the card options shown on John's S100 page.

John M.'s CPU monitor seems to run fine. When I load a CF card (tried with different cards, same result) and boot

with the monitor "P" command, I get:

CP?M V3.0 Loader

Copyright (C) 1980, Digital Research

BDOS ERR: Perm.

And that's it. There is a "40" display on the IDE card, which I take to mean Sector 40 was being read?

I've not had time to read/in detail all the posts, due to personal circumstances; so I may have missed something.

I have seen mention about options on some of the cards- is there a compendium of all these somewhere for the CPM load?

Trying to find the time to troubleshoot this properly-

Suggestions/ guidance appreciated

thank you

Leonard

I have uploaded the basic images and a short document on how to put these on a CF card with all the necessary tools included. The link is http://n8vem-sbc.pbworks.com/w/browse/#view=ViewFolder&param=CPM3-Disk-Images

I have also included modified cpmtools that understand the disk format so you can manipulate the images before writing them to a CF card. I would like to use this thread for questions and suggestions for the documentation. I have not verified the prop images as I did not have any 74LS374's on hand so I could not finish bringing up my prop console board - should be able to do that by the coming weekend. I assume a lot of you can verify whether they work or not. I believe they should. I have verified the serial ones do work.

I am opening another thread for suggestions for going forward. I want to cover how to build and customize the actual cpmldr and cpm3.sys files. I will leverage a lot of what John has done and David Fry will contribute his work on the LBA addressing changes that made this all work.

Let me know how it goes.

Dave
