As a Boston Computer Society volunteer consultant, I have again been approached by someone who inherited an old 8-bit computer without its operating system. The machine is a Cromemco C10 with a pair of 5.25" disk drives. The new owner does have a copy of the CDOS operating system, but he has already had trouble getting a number of CP/M programs to work (such as debuggers, since CDOS apparently uses RST 7, the default interrupt for most debuggers). If anyone out there could supply a CP/M boot disk, we would appreciate it. (I am assuming that Cromemco is no longer in business and that there is no way to get official support. If I am wrong, please inform me.) -- Jay Sage
