Yes, I ran a hacked up version of Cromemco ZM1 a number of years ago. The major hacks include: Duel console drivers (2810 serial and/or my Fulcrum Intelligent Video board) Removed code to program 2708 EPROMs on the Cromemco Bytesaver Added a boot loader to boot CP/M from disk In fact, my monitor boot ROM is still a VERY much modified Cromemco ZM1. But it no longer runs on the 2810. Instead, it runs on my memory board, but the effect is still the same. I guess I could move it back to the 2810 if I wanted, but it’s happy on the memory board. At one time, I was trying to move as much of my CP/M BIOS into ROM, and this would have been a super-enhanced ROM. But I pretty much gave up on the idea when I built my memory board with battery-backed RAM (CP/M can run from power-on without booting it from disk.) And then I built the N8VEM CF-IDE board and came to the realization that getting it to work in CP/M 2.2 was going to be difficult. CP/M 3 would be a much better approach. So, now I’m working on building a CP/M 3 system, and this is just not conducive to ROMMING much of the code.

Success! I programmed the AM2716DC with the GQ setting of 'AM2716'. It didn't pass verify but it looked like it had programmed. I put it in the newly acquired CCS 2810 cpu board, powered up and taped return a couple times. Got the Moss 2.2 signon. Found a couple 2716A at Futurlec this is a 200ns device http://www.futurlec.com/cgi-bin/search/qty_price.cgi?part_no=2716A-200. Any other suggestions where to buy? I'm often told to stay away from eBay... ??? Bob, have you ever run a different or enhanced capability ROM on your CCS 2810s? -- |
