Example Drive Image

Prerequisites
The project requires the Tseng ET 4000 BIOS ROM (and optionally the IBM Basic) which I can't give you. You have to "find" them yourself - for educational purposes of course :).
- Tseng ET4000 BIOS ROM
(Required file: et4000.bin) - IBM Basic C1.10 ROM
(Optional file: basicc11.bin)
Starting
- Compile the project
- Place et4000.bin (and optionally basicc11.bin) into the folder ./data/roms/ before you start the project.
Compiled project
- You'll find a compiled version of the project in the corresponding issues thread.
Useful Tools
- WinImage, for manipulating hard disk images. You have to have this in order to create your own hard disk images and to copy files from your pc into that image.
Have fun.
