Patches that can be made to the loaders are changes to the baud
rate of the system console and the step rate of the floppies on
the floppy loaders. Changes to a loader do not require a GENCCPM
be done afterward.
POSSIBLE CHANGES WITH REASSEMBLING
Reassembling the XIOS requires DR ASSEMBLER + TOOLS, an assembler
package available from CompuPro but not included with Concurrent
DOS
8-16.
The parameters of Concurrent DOS 8-16 that may be changed with
reassembly of the XIOS include those changes that can be made
using DDT86 as well as the following:
* Number and type of hard disks supported.
* Number of floppy disks supported.
-Four 8" floppies
-Four 5.25" floppies
-Two 8" and two 5.25" floppies
* terminal drivers.
* DPB's and DPH's for all drives.
CUSTOMIZING THE XIOS USING DDT86
DDT86 allows you to make changes to your XIOS file as well as
changes to your loader. Changes to the XIOS file must be
followed by a GENCCPM in order to generate the new CCPM.SYS file.
First, choose the XIOS file you want to customize. Then, create
a backup by typing:
0A>PIP XIOS.CON=XIOS????.CON[V]
[RET]
where XIOS????.CON is the XIOS file you have chosen to use from
the above list of XIOS files offered as part of Concurrent DOS
8-16.
You are now ready to enter into DDT86. The listings outlined in
this guide are applicable to each of the standard XIOS files
supplied by CompuPro.
A brief description of DDT86 commands will help you understand
exactly what DDT is doing. For a more detailed understanding of
DDT86, refer to the "Programmer's Utilities Guide" from Digital
Research.
