Hi. I somehow goofed up my CP/M disk for my Radio Shack Model II. I just bought the computer a few weeks ago. It has one drive and one Corvus hard disk (20 Meg). I have (had) a disk which I could boot up and it would go over to the hard disk. Everything was working fine until I ran some utility called TRS2CPM (or something like that on the TRS-DOS diskette), and it asked me to switch disks a few times and then it said something like "No Files Found". No, I don't know what I was doing, and I don't have a CP/M manual. Here is the problem - the system boots off of the floppy and looks like this : 63.00 K RADIO SHACK MODEL II CP/M VERSION 2.23F COPYRIGHT (C) 1981, 1982 BY ATON INTERNATIONAL, INC. COPYRIGHT (C) 1979 BY DIGITAL RESEARCH, INC. (serial number information) A>CLINK2 <- this is pulled from an autoexec.bat file --- CORVUS LINK INSTALLED --- A>C: <- also pulled from a file C> And that is all she wrote -- The system will not take ANY keyboard input. My other disks work okay (TRS-DOS), but the CP/M disk no longer takes input. I have the original disk and it doesn't boot at all. I'm lost, I know nothing about CP/M, and I haven't found anyone around here that has ever heard of ATON international. My theory -- somehow I must have messed up BDOS so that it no longer takes keyboard input. I also have Pickles and Trout CP/M, but it won't read an ATON disk.. TRS-DOS doesn't want to read it either.
