Hello David - I found the problem - I had assembled an old copy of HIDE3.ASM and once that was corrected, I had the A:> prompt.
The system works perfect and boots from MasterZ80 rom as you said. Directory looks fine and all the files seem to execute properly. Now, I have set up cpmtools (for the first time) and entered the def for the s100ide drive as outlined by Dave in the file called 'diskdefs'. I want to create a new image and I enter: *c:>mkfs.cpm -f s100ide s100ide.dsk* it always gives me an error and cannot find the diskdefs file... Now, once I get the image created, I can then use CPMCP to move files to this image, correct? Need to get familiar with cpmtools.... Thanks again for everything, Thomas On Thursday, June 19, 2014 8:50:56 AM UTC-4, David Fry wrote: > > Thomas > > > > Can you post your CF card image and your HLDRBIOS.ASM and HIDE3.ASM and > I’ll take look > > > > Regards > > > > David Fry > > > > *From:* [email protected] <javascript:> [mailto: > [email protected] <javascript:>] *On Behalf Of *Thomas Owen > *Sent:* 19 June 2014 13:37 > *To:* [email protected] <javascript:> > *Subject:* [N8VEM-S100:4280] Re: A windows based program to write a CPM3 > image to a CF card for the S100 IDE board > > > > Hello David and Dave, > > Well, here is where I am in the boot process: > > assembled a new loader -> placed on sector 1 > assembled new sys -> placed on 128 thru 151 > used same CCP from prior DFry system -> placed on 152 thru 158 > directory moved from 63 to 64 > > using the MasterZ80 Rom, when I boot I see everything up through the > sign-on message but then no 'A>'. > > looks like everything is fine up to the CCP.COM, but there is no other > error reported. > > Any suggestions? > > Thanks, > Thomas > > > On Thursday, June 19, 2014 1:41:07 AM UTC-4, David Fry wrote: > > Hi Thomas, > > > > you said "When you say 'move everything up by one' are you referring to > loader 0 -> 1, sys 127 -> 128, directory 63 -> 64" > > Yes, this is what I meant. > > No, the AU entry values are the same and don't need changing because they > are just a pointer to file location (in clusters of 4 sectors) referenced > to the start of the Directory (sector 64) > > > > regards > > > > David Fry > > > On Wednesday, June 18, 2014 11:59:24 PM UTC+1, Thomas Owen wrote: > > Hello David and Dave, > This has really been a very interesting project for me and I appreciate > all the help and information you two have provided. > I have looked over the attachment and it seems very straightforward to > making the changes I need. > > Since I obviously can't wait, I will be working on this tomorrow and have > a couple questions: > When you say 'move everything up by one' are you referring to loader 0 -> > 1, sys 127 -> 128, directory 63 -> 64? > What about all the AU designations in the directory?
