I have a CP/M86 disk that will boot on my Thinkpad laptop but not on an Intel d915GAG desktop.
On the desktop the ROM bios looks at the Boot sector Track 0, Sector 1 and rejects the disk. On the Thinkpad the Rom bios is happy to boot the disk.
Can anyone point me to the source for the BOOT sector? The alteration guide ignores the boot sector and only documents the LDRCPM, (ldrbios) and CPM (bios for the SBC)
Where can I find out what the ROM bios is looking for in the boot sector?
Thanks
Peter
