Installing Application Packages
Do not attempt to follow the software installation procedure
described in your software documentation. In most cases, the
documentation was written for a one or two-drive floppy disk
system.
You may establish one or more Winchester partitions with
the PART utility for use with Z-DOS, CP/M-85, and/or other
operating systems. In the following discussion, references will
be made to partition numbers which correspond to those used
by the PART utility.
Disk Drive Name Assignment
Under Z-DOS, drive name E is assigned to the first Winchester
Z-DOS partition and drive name F will be assigned to a second
Winchester Z-DOS partition if it is available.
When Z-DOS is booted from a floppy disk, the first two avail-
able Z-DOS partitions (having the lowest partition numbers)
can be accessed by the system. If you choose to boot from
a Winchester partition, then it, and if available, the next higher
numbered Z-DOS partition can be accessed by the system.
Note that in both cases, partitions with other operating sys-
tems may reside between the Z-DOS partitions; selected Z-
DOS partitions do not need to share a common border.
Most Z-DOS-based application software is set up to operate
in the dual floppy disk environment where drive A represents
the first 5.25-inch floppy disk drive and drive B represents
the second. Therefore, once your software is installed (placed)
on a Winchester partition, you will need to remap (with the
Z-DOS MAP command) drive names A and B to the respective
partition(s). Note that you may remap both drive names to
the same partition. You can use a BATCH file for this purpose
automatically upon power-up if you name it AUTOEXEC.BAT.
Or, you may assign some other easily-remembered name to
a BATCH file for that purpose. Refer to your Z-DOS documen-
tation for details.
