- Support is limited to 512 byte sectors. So, devices such as ATAPI Zip Drives will work. CD-ROM devices will not because they use a larger sector size.
IMM Driver has rational timeouts now. It also lights the MG014 LED during activity.
The PPA skeleton just attempts to determine if the PPA interface is present. It does not attempt any I/O.
- Floppy devices are now configured per-device so that each floppy drive can be different (e.g., first floppy is 3.5" and second floppy is 5.25").
- Removed need to use termination signal on floppy sector I/O.
Addresses issue #318
I got a very nice email from Eluan Miranda. He pointed out a few inconsistencies in the video and audio driver configurations. I made a few adjustments to clean things up.
- Improved ASSIGN operation under CP/M 3 to better handle BIOS function invocations
- Added 2PIOTST for testing the DUALPIO MBC board
- Increased default RAM drive size for ZRC
- Fixed the ROM VERIFY functionality on Z280. It was indicating errors incorrectly.
- Revised the way that ZZRCC is built to remove a bunch of complexity that was causing issues. An implication of this is that ZZRCC now treats the data loaded from the CF Card as a ROM disk instead of a RAM disk.
- Updated the assemblers to handle some more Z280 instructions used in HBIOS.
- When building ZZRCC, checks have been added to ensure the ROM image is exactly 256K. The build defaults to 512K and that causes the ZZRCC disk image to be corrupted. This will stop the build if the user fails to specify a 256K ROM size.
- Added TMSMODE_RCKBD to support an 8242 keyboard combined with TMS video.
- Worked around a syntax issue from uz80as in rz.asm.
- Improved mechanism to handle forcing a UART detection for SIMH.
- Reorganized most of the "common" files into special directories.
- Fixed bug affecting application boot related to ROM checksum test.
- Added support for LiNC sound card at default port address.
- Phil Summers' ROM Updater has been given an official/permanent place in the Boot Loader menu.
- Rearranged the order and sizing of the modules in the third ROM bank to allow space for above.
- Made a few minor updates to the DSKYng support code.
- DSKYng now has same features as original DSKY including debug monitor
- Added support for MBS LEDs
- Elevated MBS to a platform instead of just a sub-config of SBC
