ELITE SERIES USER MANUAL CP/M ENHANCEMENTS
CP/M will respond with it’s “A>”. Now issue the
following four commands. After each command has
completed, CP/M will respond with it’s “A>”
prompt. Whenever SGLDRIVE asks you to “mount
B:”, you should insert the Enhancer diskette and
then press <ESC>. When SGLDRIVE asks you to
“mount A:”, you should insert the enhanced CP/M
master diskette and then press <ESC>.
PIP A: =B:FORMAT.COM[V] <RETURN>
PIP A: =B:COPY.COM[V]<RETURN>
PIP A: =B:PROFILE.COM[V] <RETURN>
PIP A: =B:SGLDRIVE.COM[V]<RETURN>
If you are a first time Apple CP/M user, the “[“
character is produced by typing <CTRL-K>, and
the "]" character is produced by typing <SHIFT-
N>. The Apple keyboard is not marked with (at
least one of) these characters. If you are
using a special keyboard modification or 80—
column board, you will probably need to consult
the manual for that product concerning special
keyboard characters under CP/M.
These commands told the PIP utility to copy the
specified files from drive B: to drive A: and to
verify that the files made it there correctly
(“[V]").
The next step is to create a system diskette
which gives you the full storage capability of
your drive. If the only Elite product you have
is the Elite Controller, then you are finished.
The rest of these instructions deal with the
configuring of the enhanced CP/M to make use of
the extra storage of an Elite Series drive.
