Alteration of the CP/M-86 Operating System.

Abstract

CP/M-86 is a microcomputer (INTEL 8086) operating system developed and marketed by Digital Research. The operating system is designed so that a user can adapt the system to his own input/output hardware devices. This thesis develops interfaces to two floppy disk controllers, the iSBC 201 (single density) and the iSBC 202 (double density) controllers. The interface includes the writing of a boot loader embedded in the iSBC957 Execution Vehicle Monitor, the monitor system for the INTEL iSBC 86/12 single board computer. Also included is an interface module for the cold start loader (loader BIOS). A design for the interface module of typical systems based on Winchester technology hard disks is also presented.
