Warm Boot
or Warm Start
(with a pre-loaded program)
Switching the
Disk Drives
When writing information on a
diskette, the system orients its
write procedure according to a
diskette map which is read into
the working storage. When you
exchange diskettes the map of
the previous diskette still remains
in working storage. In order to
replace this map with that of the
new diskette, a warm boot or
start must be initiated. This
allows the write operation for the
new diskette to take place.
The operating system must be
prepared via a warm boot or start
in order to write on the exchanged
diskette following each diskette
exchange.
Procedure
• Press the CTRL key and the C
key simultaneously.
This restarts the CP/M-86 operat­
ing system. CP/M-86 then reads
the directory into working storage
and selects the diskette you just
inserted into Drive B. Now the
diskette in Drive B can be written
on.
As you know, the main unit of the
basic PEOPLE Personal Micro­

to the user—disk drive A and

can switch the read/write process
from one disk drive to another.
We will assume that the operating
system was already loaded into
working storage via disk drive A.
On the display you will see the
disk drive specification A with the
CP/M prompt A>as the last entry.
