Are you sure ISIS (one) didn't have disk support? I thought that was
shipped with the first Intel MDS-DOS floppy systems for use on the
MDS-800 in 1975.  A 1975 edition of the MDS-DOS Operator's Manual is
listed among other Intel manuals at:

     http://www.intel-vintage.info/aboutme.htm

Looked up the copyright registration for the manual and related items:

A712678.  MDS-DOS diskette operating system operator's manual  79 p.
Add. ti:  Intel diskette operating system microcomputer development
System MDS-DOS operator's manual. (c) Intel Corporation; 22Dec75.

A712670.  Intel diskette operating system microcomputer development
System MDS-DOS hardware reference manual. 1 v. (c) Intel
Corporation; 15Dec75.

Here is a bit on CP/M.
