## DOS 65
This disk is one of several ready-to-run disks provided with RomWBW.
It contains the files to start and run DOS/65 on an MBC system that
contains Dan Werner's 6502 processor. The contents of this disk are
purely a redistribution of the work of Dan Werner
WARNING: This is a work in progress. Use of this disk image requires
specific hardware and configuration. You should contact Dan Werner
before attempting to use this disk image.
### Usage ###
- The disk is configured to boot under ZSDOS 1.1 (via primary Z80
CPU). Once booted, you can launch DOS/65 on a secondary 6502
CPU using the "DOS65" command.
### Notes ###
- DOS/65 is generally compatible with the CP/M 2.2 filesystem. Once
launched, you will have access to the fielsystem of the boot disk.
- DOS/65 does not utilize any of the RomWBW framework or drivers, so
it will only support devices built into DOS/65 itself. Once
launched DOS/65 takes over the hardware completely.
