[net.micro.cpm] How do I autostart my KAYPRO??

johnco@mako.UUCP (John M. Cole) (12/20/85)

This is my second posting of this. Somehow I don't think it got out as I
never saw it on any of the requested newsgroups except for one local
newsgroup (it's been 3 days). If it did, please excuse the reposting.

I need some help in trying to figure out a way to get my KayproII to
autostart a file from a cold boot. 
It seems to me that CP/M had some way to do this with
AUTO.COM or something, but I don't see it in any of the documentation.
I am working towards a "turnkey" system. I am running CP/M 2.2.
I am familiar with how Northstar did it on their boxes running
2.2, but it seems this is different for Kaypro. Any advice/pointers would
be greatly appreciated.
										Thanks in advance,
										John

I don't own a Kaypro, so have never tested the program, but I have a
program called AUTOBOOT on my RCP/M that has different versions for
different KP CP/M's. It is under 20k, so can be downloaded quie easily.
If you can't call, mail me directly and we can work out some
sort of "disk-swap" via US-Mail.
