- CP/M disks use a completely different format from TOS disks. In
- order to begin using ST CP/M, you must use the MAKE_ME utility to
- create a CP/M format disk which includes two important utilities:
- INIDSK, which formats additional CP/M disks, and TOSCPM, which
- lets you move files from TOS format disks to CP/M format disks.
-
- First follow the directions for MAKE_ME.TOS below. Then run the
- CPMZ80.TOS program to enter CP/M. Finally, use the TOSCPM utility
- to copy the remaining CP/M utilities onto the CP/M disk.
-
- You MUST be in medium resolution (color) or high resolution
- (monochrome) to use ST CP/M. Low resolution will not work.

- MAKE_ME DIRECTIONS
-
-
- 1) Prepare a BLANK single sided Formatted disk.
- 2) Insert the disk containing Make_Cpm and the CPM data file
- into DISK DRIVE A.
- 3) Click on the Make_Cpm icon to run the program.
- 4) When prompted, INSERT the BLANK disk into
- DISK DRIVE A.
- 5) When completed, you will now have a CP/M formatted disk
- to run with the emulator.
-
- NOTE: There are several things that you should do before
- experimenting with the CP/M emulator.
-
- 1) Prepare several new CP/M formatted disks.
- To do this, run INIDSK <diskdrive>
-
- At the prompt, INSERT a BLANK formatted disk into the
- drive that you specified and press return.
-
- You now have a new CP/M formatted disk!
-
- 2) Copy the TOS format CP/M files to your working CP/M
- disks using TOSCPM.
-
- The format is: TOSCPM <tosfile> <cpmfile>
-
- 3) Upon completion, you should put away the MAKE_CPM disk
- and also the PSUEDO CP/M disk that was created.
-
- From now on, you should only use your 'genuine' CP/M disks.
-
- ENJOY!
