Hi!

Wow! At once the competition. I only was looking for users for
my software... :-) Never mind...

To get working ZXVGS on SAM through Internet is a bit
complicated procedure because of the only one filesystem
implemented now in ZXVGS is CP/M 2.2 one. :-(

So you will need:
 - about 300KB "CPM22QED.LHA" uuencoded file that I will send;
 - uudecode program;
 - unlha program;
 - 3.5" floppy disk formatted to 72KB in MS-DOS;
 - second 3.5" floppy disk for CP/M installation;
 - "ZXVGS.guide" file;
 - AmigaGuide program to read it comfortably (or WINGUIDE.EXE).


Mentioned "ZXVGS.guide" should be in "VGSguide.lha" on:

http://nautilus.uwoj.krakow.pl/zxland/

Otherwise ask "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" how to get my
files.


The procedure is:
  1. Uudecode file "CPM22QED.LHA".
  2. Unlha it.
  3. Copy file "CPM22QED.106" to empty 720KB MS-DOS disk.
  4. Boot SAM from it using e.g. <F9>.
  5. CPM22QED will copy all files to ramdisk.
  6. Insert new disk (not necessary). ;-)
  7. Format it to 820KB using:

QFORMAT 0:DISKNAME /QED820

  8. Copy all files to this disk using:

PPIP A:*.* B:

  9. Make the disk bootable using:

SYS22QED B:

 10. Reset SAM. You can use:

RESET

 11. Boot SAM from the 820KB disk.

In case of troubles write to me. :-)


On the disk there will be ZXVGS 0.13 that doesn't load
"*.TAP"... :-) The file "VGSSAM.COM".

Then I'll send soon short archive with new "VGSSAM.COM" and
"R-MSDOS.COM".

The R-MSDOS program reads files from 720KB MS-DOS disks and
copies them to M: (ramdisk). You should PPIP them to A: (floppy
disk) before use. This way you will be able to load new ZXVGS
version and new R-MSDOS program that allows load "*.TAP" files
from MS-DOS. The current R-MSDOS will not save "end marker" with
"*.TAP" file, what is required in CP/M filesystem.

And tell me where to I could send uuencoded "CPM22QED.LHA" file.
