Ok this for those guys like myself that still are heavy Floppy Drive users.
I would hope that those responsible for maintaining the OFFICIAL
HDBDOS/ToolShed repository consider implementing the DSKINI patch on any
future revisions.  I know not everyone uses floppy drives with HDBDOS, but
this patch could save frustrations for those that might use RETRIEVE and
other imaging tools.

 

  Modifications:                                ** Unofficial ROM !! **

.          Checks AUTOEXEC.BAS from real floppy instead of DW/Hard Drive.

.         DSKINI routine patched to work flawlessly with utilities such as
the latest RETRIEVE.EXE

 

 

This includes the .ROM's and the modified HDBDOS.ASM source as well as a
.RTF document listing the changes made for review.

Unfortunately, the changes have made most of these ROM's greater than 8,192
bytes which means they will not fit inside your 2764 EPROM and will require
atleast a 27128 EPROM to work.
