Well, put simply the ATOM is an IDE interface with two channels that attaches to the second FDD connector (or to the external bus if you have one of those models) BDOS allows for the hard disc to be split up into 800K 'records' which are accessed as virtual second disc drives i.e. D2 is the record on the hard disc. Records are selected from BASIC with the extended SAMBasic commands or straight from code. The later BDOS's from Martijn have support for CDROM drives too. I have a modified ROM which boots BDOS from the hard disc (gleaned from Persona so I'm not sure where you can source on from ATM) Full details on Andrew's site: http://mnemotech.ucam.org/downloads/BDOSINFO4.txt Dan.
