I ahve seen this mentioned a couple times, and have seen the problem
on all the CP/M system I have used. When working in other that USER 0
if a warm boot is done, you get forced back to USER 0.
Could any of the CP/M wizards please show a good method to have the
bios handle the USER #, in the warmboot or disksel area I assume.
Does it simply entail grabbing the USER # from the page zero location
and saving it, then restoring on warmboot? Examples please...Thanks..
