I just started back in 8 bit Apples after being away for 25+ years.
(Something about job and family as I remember.)
I picked up an Apple //e Platinum from eBay and a Microdrive from
ReactiveMicro. I've had a blast over the past month. Disk images from
the web are not a problem to convert to 5.25" floppies or their own
subdirectories on the Microdrive. CidarPress has been a treasure. I
also found a working Z-80 Softcard at a garage sale. (I was told that
it didn't fit an IBM.)
Now the questions. I can get CP/M working (v2.2 and v2.3.) Can either
of these use the Microdrive or any hard disk on the Apple? Likewise,
can the UCSD Pascal system use the drive or am I better off looking
for another Pascal that will run under ProDOS?
I am having a bit (OK, a whole lot) of trouble running DOS MASTER.
Other than the included documentation are there any additional tip
sheets,, idiots guides to, or any thing like that available?
