I am trying to customize a CPM BIOS for an homebrew Z80 based system. I would like to know if anyone has suggestions as to what 5.25" SSDD disk format to use so that I might be able to order CPM sotware in a format familiar to distributors. Any suggestions would be welcome especially if detailed information such as number of sectors/track and number of bytes/sector is available.

The format that I would suggest if you are using 40 tracks is; 256 bytes per sector 17 sectors per track 3 reserved tracks 155K bytes disk capacity The data architecture could be to an IBM system 34 format or modified as per Xerox Hope this helps//Ken
