uBee512 - Accessing a B: Drive?

[Under4Mhz]

As others have mentioned ubee512 with the -a and -b options will insert disks into a and b drive.

When you boot up the standard_128_master_ds40 disk that cool little menu appears.

If you type in "b:" (letter "b" and a colon) and press enter, this will show the contents of the other disk in the list.

If you press 7, this will take you to the transfer menu. Press 1 to copy. Page Up selects files, and you can select multiple files. You can set the destination as b: or a: depending on the disk shown.

If you press 0, that will take you to the CP/M prompt, and you can use cp to copy files from b: to a:

You can also use cpmtools on your PC, if you download the patched version from the repository. This has the command cpmcp that will copy files to and from a disk.

Code:

cpmcp -f ss80 -T dsk disk_ss80.dsk edasm.com 0:edasm.com

As an aside, if you're looking to do debugging for the Microbee, I've found the mame debugger to be useful. "mame -debug" starts mame with a separate debugger window. To set a break point, type "bpset address" in the little one line edit box at the bottom, and hit F5 to run.
