Not sure if there are many (any?) P112 users still floating around
but, just in case...

Does anyone have instructions on how to make a C/PM 2.2 installation on
a hard disk on the P112 with the GIDE? Might look at CPM 3.0 as well,
but I would really like a C/PM 2.2 hard disk system to work with.

For those who remember this thread...

I have determined that there is probably no way to set up
a hard disk system using CP/M 2.2. However, there should
be for CP/M 3.0. And it is probably close enough to meet
my needs.

On another track....

I got sidetracked but good news came out of it. I don't
know if anyone had already tried this but I have successfully
booted CP/M 2.2 - CP/M 3.0 - MPM-II - RSX180 and UZI on the
P112 from a GOTEK USB Floppy Emulator using the hXc2001
firmware. I plan to try the FlashFloppy firmware as well,
but at only about $10 the hXc2001 firmware is OK.

If this continues to show promise I think very shortly all
of my vintage systems will be giving up their mechanical
floppies in favor of GOTEKs.
