The cold boot code for the Applicard would probably help greatly if I can dig
it up.

    A listing of stage zero of the Applicard boot sequence is now
available in the 'Files' section of the Yahoo! Apple CP/M group.  This
is the code that loads into $9100 from the first three tracks of the
boot disk.

That's not where Alex is having the problem. The code you have there simply loads the 6502 BIOS and calls it's cold-boot entry. The host BIOS uploads the CP/M image to the Applicard and kicks it off. From what I gather, that's where the problem occurs. The 6502 goes into a loop waiting for commands from the Z80 that, in Alex's case, never come.

I'm busy re-learning the details for all this stuff. Used to know it cold, but haven't looked at the Applicard in about 20 years :-).
