sigma.ini tries to use cpcp.tap from parent directory. #7

Closed dfnr2 closed 2 years ago

dfnr2 commented 2 years ago

The sigma.ini file has the line:

att mt0 ../cpcp.tap

which looks for the cpcp.tap file in the parent directory. This can work if the file is copied or linked to the parent, but as pulled from the repo, I have been removing the ../ to make it work. I can imaging there could a reason for this, for example, to preserve the repo version if the tape image is being modified.

You may put the PO tape file anywhere it suits you. You are free to modify anything you like, at your own risk.

dfnr2 commented 2 years ago

I agree. But removing the '../' will allow the setup to boot unmodified when pulled fresh from the repository.

kenrector commented 2 years ago

OK.

I also added : You may wish to modify this file, particularly the MT and DP attach commands to suit your personal environment.
