MicroTech CP/M v2.2
Overview
Linux, MacOS and Windows are now the defacto operating systems in use on many PCs. It all started years ago with Digital Research creating the Control Program/Monitor (CP/M). CP/M was one of the first real operating systems for Microcomputers
providing common means to run applications across varying hardware. Any machine running CP/M has access to thousands of programs.
Micro Technology created a version of CP/M v2.2 for the Sharp MZ80A, which for many years has proven very elusive to obtain.
On acquistion of my Kuma modified MZ-80A I received and scanned the Micro Technology manual below and recreated the disks allowing any MZ-80A owner with access to a floppy disk or disk emulator to run this original CP/M OS.
Further information on CP/M and how it functions and built can be found here. I wrote my own version of CP/M in 2020 when I wasnt able to obtain this MicroTech version.

The following disk images have been extracted from a number of old corrupt disks and re-generated using the CP/M tools: FORMAT, SYSGEN, BACKUP, PIP.
