We should also look at the LBA layouts of other Z80 systems like Zeta, and provide a compatible CF card format...
This would make all of our projects easier to port and operate..

Tom Lafleur (858) 759-9692 Maybe someone could post an image on PBworks? You can use disk imaging tools on windows or dd on Linux or Mac to transfer to a CF. Maybe David Fry could post one? I think his changes to the LBA is what we should standardize on. It has no holes - I would post one but I have had some difficulty getting his code to fully work. I am trying to use cpm tools with his LBA structure but I am having some difficulties I don't understand yet. I have put it on the back burner for the moment as I am trying to get the 68K board reading CF cards so I can get CP/M 68K up and running - I am really close. I plan on using the same LBA structure so both have the same format so I will get back to resolving the problem pretty soon. We should make a repository for some standard images (like compilers, editors, wordstar, etc) - would save people a lot of work hunting everything down.

I'm anxious to play, but don't want to wait for a working floppy system.
Would anyone with a working system be willing to duplicate up two "bootable" Compact Flash cards for me?
I'd be happy to send along the CF along with a self addressed stamped mailer for the return trip - and even toss in a few goodies as a thanks.
