Additional Features
TR-DOS 5.043v1
VfNG / NEW
We have already talked about the problems with Brest
DOS. For those who have not read previous editions of Echo, I
repeat: the controller drives the production of local concern
(BEMK) has a port other than the corporate controller. This was
due to the fact that time when the BEMK began production of the
disk interface, we have not yet smelled any TR-DOS'ami, and if
started smell slightly, then no one could say that the TR-DOS
will be the future standard. Therefore, the basis of disk
interface was derived system CP / M, which, it must recognize,
much steeper than wretched TR-DOS.
But some time later, for some reason
TR is caught on ... And the project BEMK in support of CP / M
flew into ... Well, wherever in the Union somehow always flew
good projects.
By the time the expansion of the TR-DOS on
Brest Market and Belorus in general,
BEMK'ovskih controllers fired the sea. A TR-DOS and settle
user'y groaned. K Fortunately, the interface BEMK had excellent
ability: a downloadable ROM. Therefore, in order to satisfy
users, was made attempt to adapt the TR-DOS 5.01 under the
controller ports BEMK. More or less succeeded. Then b Brest
showed up and 5.04T adapted as well. About 100% compatibility
to dream and do not have to, but life has become
possible. Moreover, in an adapted DOS was added a few nice
features.
In 1997, tried a little pomuchat adapted version I, VfNG.
Torment him until pulp and work was about 90% had not
previously running programs. In addition, the my version of
some work program, not working because of the separate fields
of memory for branded controllers. I also added a couple of new
features.

Well, finally worth it to talk about
ports used in the controller BEMK:
008h = 01fh firm (the status / command);
028h = 03fh firm (track);
048h = 05fh firm (sector);
068h = 07fh brand (data);
009h: and here the main difference. Only
for recording and has the following significant bits:
0: 1 = double density;
1: 1 = include a motor drive
0 = vyklyuait;
2: 1 = side 0, 0 = side 1;
3: 0 = drive A, 1 = drive B.
