When using the Z2 memory manager, if the HBIOS exceeds 16K, RTCDEFVAL will not be accessible prior to programming the Z2 memory bank registers. In this corner case the RTC latch could be mis-programmed. This commit introduces a workaround.
- ACIA driver was not properly returning ZF to indicate if it handled an interrupt.
- APPBOOT was failing on ROMless systems because it was copying the HBIOS code overtop of itself.
Based on input from Issue #364, I have attempted to clarify a few areas on the User Guide:
- Recommendation to only use ROM OSes only for limited purposes
- Added a more detailed description of the automatic drive assignment algorithm
- Added more detail on batch file auto-submission
- Fix ensures that the speaker control bit is set the same as it was initially after playing a tone.
- Reserve 2 bytes in the proxy for a platform dependent tick counter value. Currently for HEATH platform.
- Added support for Duodyne to PS2INFO application.
- Switched all build paths to consistently use OpenSpin since it appears to be compatible with all build environments supported by RomWBW.
- Added support for Duodyne Multi-IO board
- Added support for Duodyne Zilog-IO board
- Added SUPCTS equate in hbios.asm to allow selectively adding code to suppress use of CTS during HBIOS boot
- Added reference in User Guide to Bruce Hall's Assembly Language Programming document
- CP/M 3 ldrbios had not been properly updated for device type id change.
- ASSIGN command was not handling DPB's correctly due to device type id change.
FAT application had not been updated to reflect a change in the HBIOS Disk Device API call return data. This is corrected in this check-in. Related discussion in #368.
- Detect CTS at startup to ensure it is asserted. If not, disable hardware flow control to avoid stalling the console at boot. Only for UART driver because this is the only place it is currently relevant.
- Add minimal Fuzix instructions to User Guide
- Enable CTC auto-detect by default for RCBus. It causes no problems to auto-detect it and it will stop a CTC from generating unexpected interrupts after a soft restart.
- Upgrade `SUPERSUB` to v1.3 (previously v1.1)
- The naming of ZZRCC was incorrectly ZZRC. Corrected.
- Max Scane has provided a small bug fix for CLRDIR.
- Minor build updates for new HTalk utility.
- Dean Jenkins has motivated me to implement additional protection from using a slice that does not fit within the capacity of the physical disk being used. You can still assign an unusable slice, but when you try to refer to it, you will immediately get a "no disk" error from the OS.
Driver Device Type ID's have been stored in the upper nibble. However, running out of ID's, I have changed them to occupy the entire byte.
This is a breaking change, so I have updated the minor version number to maintain integrity between components. So, v3.3 will never become a stable release and I am moving directly to v3.4.
- The build process was enhanced by Dean Jenkins to support the Raspberry Pi. Note that the Propeller firmware will not be generated by a RPi build. See Issue #358.
- Initial support for USB storage via CH375/6.
