New blog post! It's part five of my quest to make my very own #ColecoVision. This time, I let other people build one too, and make sure I actually included all the parts! There's still some bugs to work out, but I do still love my first clone system.

A quick shot this week on the blog: I really like the ColecoVision as a retrodev platform, but I'm not a fan of the 12-second boot screen that also claims every program ever is copyright Coleco.

So today we fix that.

A Thing Called Packri Monster (Take 2)
Sometimes Wordpress is infuriating.

What I remember doing is working hard on a post proclaiming to the world the existence of a weird offshoot of the Pac-Man universe called Packri Monster. I wrote it, and I saved it (I believe) so it would be posted on the morning of January 16th.

Well, I just

It works! #Coleco #Adam #RetroComputing #VintageComputing #CPM #ColecoAdam

I think I got it:

diskdef coleco-adam

maxdir 48

boottrk 0
bootsec 26

end

Anyone ever use cpmtools 2.23 with #Coleco #Adam CP/M 160k disks? cpmls will give me a complete dir listing, but cpmcp complains "Attempting to access block beyond end of disk". Current diskdef:

diskdef coleco-adam

This week on the blog: I port my TI-99/4A capstone project over to the SG-1000, then refactor it so that ports to the ColecoVision and MSX are relatively trivial. Along the way I poke into as many corners of the Z80 ISA as I can.

This week focuses mostly on the SG-1000, to continue from the previous article; I'll be looking more closely at the details of the CV and MSX soon enough.
