hello,

a friend of mine asked me to place a request concerning a tatung cp/m-
machine to this group. he looks for contact to other tatung-users and
has some troubles as follows:
- as described in the manual, there should be a possibility to add a
  third disk-drive; but doing so, the controller sets all four select-
  outputs to high-level instead only drive-select-2. the disk controller
  should be a wd1793, but a MB8877A (fairchild?) is built-in.
  who knows anything about that problem or can tell us anything about
  that chip?
- other problems are to install a 2-mb-ramdisk and/or a 27-mb-harddisk.
  it also should be possible (manual), but there's no description, how.

please contact me, if you could help us and/or you're tatung-user too.

thanks in advance, axel zinser
