RE: "1.4 really didn't even do a DISK bios, it was
embedded in the bdos.
the bios for 1.4 was only terminal, punch reader and printer
IO. Yes, it
was a pain to interface any new disk to it."
Allison, that is simply not true. The diskette format (DPH
and DBP) was
imbedded in the BDOS, but the disk I/O was in the BIOS, more
or less like
2.x.
