luckybuck Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 (edited) Hi tep392, Can you please upload the L-Version of Omnimon here? Thank you soooo much in advance. 🙂 - Banked Version L (4KiB): Same as RAMdisk Version R with additional disk I/O facilities, but without debugging commands of Standard Version - Banked Version U (4KiB): Add-on for Banked Version L adds the Standard Version debugging commands plus a mini-assembler and a relocate command.

ivop Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 (edited) I have put everything on github: https://github.com/ivop/romdos Checkout the README.md "Original" boot disks are in the atr directory, the BASIC cartridge now resides in the roms directory, and the "fake" XL ROM is called romdos-xl-osb.rom. There's a script that creates the "fake" XL ROM based on the original files, and there are two scripts that create two new boot disks. You can replicate creating atr/formatted+dupr.atr by booting atr/romdos.atr, swap disks to an empty one, format, and (H) Write DOS files. romdos-bootcode-dupr.atr is binary identical to atr/formatted+dupr.atr, but built from source! These files are similar to what was called blank.atr before (but without HELLO.BAS on it ) romdos-singlesector-dupr.atr is the experimental boot disk. It contains a single boot sector that jumps to ROMDOS directly. Unless there's no ROMDOS ROM present. Then it'll display an error message and halts. I wrote that myself, based on what I discovered, and it is fast going to the READY prompt Edit: the point of the single sector boot disk is to not include code for a SuperCart, and not include code to load DOS.SYS or DOSC.SYS from disk, because you know this disk is for a ROMDOS equiped machine. And those files aren't on the disk anyway Edited October 23, 2022 by ivop 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivop Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 (edited) @Larry The AUTORUN.SYS file that's executed when you boot romdos.atr is a serial R: driver for MyDOS/RDOS. Hence you have less free memory in BASIC. It registers an R: entry in HATABS. Edited October 23, 2022 by ivop 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivop Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 The AUTORUN.SYS (88 bytes) on the SuperCart disk is also meant to install an R: handler. Instead of loading from disk, it tries to load it from the R: device through SIO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivop Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 So, are there any other ROM dumps available of the newer 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, and 1.4 versions? Perhaps we should start a "Calling all ROMDOS ROMs" thread? People might not all read this thread that's just named "Manual". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckybuck Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 I would love to add this to the Wiki including all manuals etc... :-))))))) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
