WINCHESTER SUPPLEMENT
Under CP/M, drive names are assigned dynamically upon
bootup. The names assigned to the first partition is dependent
on the powered-up state of any 8-inch floppy disk system that
may be attached to your computer. The following discussion
assumes that you are booting your CP/M system from the
5.25-inch floppy disk drive.
If there is no 8-inch system, or if you have an 8-inch system
attached but not powered-up, your computer will boot CP/M
and assign drive name C to the lowest numbered CP/M parti-
tion and drive name D to the next higher numbered CP/M
partition if one is present. If you have an 8-inch floppy disk
system attached to your computer and it is on, then your com-
puter will boot CP/M and assign drive name E to the first
CP/M partition and drive name F to the second.
Since CP/M is dynamic,
you do not need to be concerned
with "mapping" the various Winchester partitions, as with Z-
DOS. Instead, when you boot CP/M from the Winchester
CP/M partition of your choice, that partition is automatically
assigned drive name A. The CP/M command, ASSIGN, can
then be used to assign drive name B to a second partition
(you can not assign more than one drive name to the same
partition). The entire process can be automated by using a
SUBMIT file and setting the partition (with the CONFIGUR
program) to execute the SUBMIT file from a "cold" boot. Refer
to your CP/M documentation for details.
NOTE: If your CP/M application software requires the use of
two logical disk drives, then two Winchester CP/M partitions
will also be required to use the software.
Select Your Target Partition(s) and Space Needed
Now, you must select the appropriate Z-DOS or CP/M parti-
tion(s) that you will use for your working copy of the software
application package. The software package may include pro-
gram files, data files, operating system files, and/or computer
language files. You will need to make sure that the amount
of space required to store and maintain these files is less
than the amount of space available on the target Winchester
