this not so little problem by doing a little
lieing to CP/M itself.

containing SGLDRIVE is inserted.

Revision 1. 1
When SGLDRIVE is first executed, it takes a
small section of itself and copies it into some
storage space inside CP/M which is only used

you completely reboot your Apple. This is re-
ferred to as the “resident“ portion of SGLDRIVE.
Once this resident portion is in place, SGLDRIVE
will tell you:

CP/M to read or write some information from
drive B: (which, as a single drive user, you
won’t have), SGLDRIVE will display:
