It will be interesting to exanine this moment. CHRV answered absolutely correct, but theoretically xBIOS ca work on ZX-Evo besides it options of IDE HDD/CD boot. But in xBIOS don't realise working with such ZX-Evo possibilities as SD/FAT support, CMOS-Gluk or 14MHz regime. In addition RAM-disk vTR-DOS of ATM-turbo 2+ is situated in only "first" (law) megabyte (because it don'n know that RAM can be more bigger) and can't working with main part of soft us RAM higher than 128Kb, because it destroy virtual diskette in RAM. EVO-DOS for RAM-dick use memory higher then "first" Mb.

About ATM CP/M v2.2 - it used in ATM far time ago befor xBIOS was created in old MicroART ROM. We only copyed ROM of CP/M in new subj. It is not unpossible to start CP/M without using HDD on ZX-Evo (we need find "start-points" in ROM only and make presetting of memory config before), but for 100% functionality recuires to rewrite HDD-driver in CP/M ROM.

И какие у него были оценки в "школе"? Вы лучше учились? На скольких мовах размовляете?
