NANOCF7 : XB autoload only in dsk1 ?

[lucifershalo]

Hello,

I am back;)

thanks for all the people that help me

with my Pebox (that still doesnt run as it should)

and NANOCF7

I finally understand how to make it run

yeah how happy I am

how easy

 

now, a question

when I use and mount XB files

the XB file in dsk1 is autoload

is it possible to put B files in dsk2 and dsk3?

if so how do I launch them?

 

thanks

XB will only autoload from dsk1. So it will load from whichever volume is mapped to dsk1 at the time.

 

If you wanted to autoload a program from another disk (volume), and you don't want to map that volume as dsk1, could the autoload program on dsk1 simply contain the instruction RUN "DSK2.NAME"? Or maybe it gives you a menu of the programs you can run from the other disks, depending on what you're trying to achieve?

Just adding, in case it is useful, that our colleague in France (Guillame?) has written a little assembler program that will let you change volumes within XB. See http://gtello.pagesperso-orange.fr/ti99_e.htm and scroll down to the section "The CF7+ card".

Or use a GRAM device and you could use RXB and it allows you to load anything.

XB, BASIC, EA3, EA5, and even a C loader. Also supports AMS and any RAMDISK using letters or numbers.

i.e. DSK1. or DSKA. or DSKa. or DSKz.
