If you need help getting ZCPR up and running, this is the place to leave your
request.  Others who have already been down that road will hopefully reply.

I've been working ZCPR3 into my Heath H89 system. I have a Hard drive
subsystem on the H89 along with the softsector floppy drives. Getting the
CBIOS and ZCPR3.ASM (+LIBs) all implemented for ZCPR3 was sucessful on the
floppy drives using the SECOND LEVEL system generation method using the
original SYSGEN and DDT. My problem is that I want to place the system onto
the boot track of one of my Hard disk partitions. The original SYSGEN,
MOVCPMxx was replaced by PUTSYS.COM which was generated from MOVCPMxx.com.
SYSGEN will not write a proper system to my hard disk using second level
method. I need to know how to integrate ZCPR3 into MOVCPM.COM. Then I will try
<RETURN>, <S>croll, <Q>uit ?S
to generate HD PUTSYS.COM using the original patches from the modified
MOVCPM.COM. Can anyone point me in the right direction?// Thanks in advance

To J.TURLEY:

   You asked about installing ZCPR3 on your Heath 89 with a hard disk system. 
I'm afraid that the ZCPR3 technology is so old at this point that I no longer
remember the details of this process.  At the very least you should get the
ZCPR33 source files, which I am quite sure are posted here.

   I would also strongly suggest that you consider purchasing the commercial,
automatically installing, dynamically reconfigurable Z- System product called
NZCOM.  In my opinion there is only one sensible reason anyone could give for
not using NZCOM, and that is the cost.  If you cannot afford the $70, then you
should go with the manually installed system.  Otherwise, with NZCOM you not
only save a great deal of trouble and effort but also end up with a much
better implementation of Z-System.

   An NZCOM system is very easy to set up and to reconfigure later when you
want to fine-tune it.  You don't have to assemble anything or put anything
onto system tracks.  You can even change operating system configurations in
the middle of a command line!  In this way, an alias script for loading an IOP
(input/output package) module can first load an NZCOM configuration that
includes an allocation for the IOP.  In normal operation one can have a bigger
TPA by not including that 1.5K allocation.

   You can probably find in the library here files containing some of my
columns from "The Computer Journal" magazine, and among them you will find
quite a few that deal with NZCOM.  I'd suggest you take a look at them.  The
files have names like TCJ##.WZ, where ## is the issue number.  If you are
interested in 8-bit computing, you might also want to consider a subscription.
Finally, I believe there are some messages on the BBS here that talk about the
autoinstall versions of CP/M for both CP/M-2.2 and CP/M-3 systems.

Jay I appreciate the response and good information. I just signed on here 20
hours later to see if I could pull the Topic off. Today I was able to find in
an old LBR on ZCPR-1 for the H89 the needed steps to implement the ZCPR CCP
into MOVCPM.COM (now MOVZCPR3.COM) and with this take the steps to produce my
Z3PUTSYS.COM for the Hard Drive. I just tested it and it's OK!..... I'm
working with someone in implementing ZCPR3 manually to gain experience, not to
save money. We like to 'tinker' with the operating system... hobby ya know.
Thanks again and I guess this threads ended. As soon as I gain more experience
with ZCPR I'll join you in the RT's.// J.T.
