CP M Support

As of 2020-01-20, the #FujiNet firmware has support for CP/M, via the excellent RunCPM software emulation layer. This provides a Z80 CPU, and enough of an emulation core to run almost all CP/M programs, with the Atari acting as a terminal.

Setting up CP/M Support

Currently, CP/M support is limited to the local SD card slot. You'll need to create folders in this structure (starting from the root of the SD card!), and place your CP/M files into them.

/CPM/<capital drive letter>/<user number>/

So for example, two drives with some user areas would look like:

• /CPM
  • A/
    • 0/
      • ED.COM
      • WS.COM
      • ...
    • 1/
      • WORK.DOC
      • TEST.BAS
      • ...
    • 2/
    • ...
    • 15/
  • B/
    • 0/
    • ...
    • 15/
    • ...

It really is that simple, copy the files you want, into the folder structure, and CP/M will see them in those drives at those user areas.

Remember:

• CP/M can handle drives A to P.
• CP/M can handle user areas 0 to 15.

Are there any archives of software?
