Basic
Disk Operating System Error on the designated
drive: CP
1M replaces d: with the drive specification
of
the drive where the error occurred. This message
is
followed by one
of
the four phrases in the situations
described below.
This message appears when CP
1M finds no disk in the
drive, when the disk
is
improperly formatted, when the
drive latch
is
open, or when power to the drive
is
off.
Check for one
of
these situations and try again. This
could also indicate a hardware problem or a worn
or
im-
properly formatted disk. Press CTRL-C to terminate
the program and return
to
CP
1M,
or
press the return
key to ignore the error.
You tried to erase, rename,
or
set
file
attributes on a
Read-Only file. The
file
should first be set to Ready-
Write (RW) with the command:
"STAT
filespec
$R/W."
Drive has been assigned Read Only status with a STAT
command, or the disk in the drive has been changed
without being initialized with a CTRL-C. CP
1M ter-
minates the current program
as
soon as you press any
key.
CP
1M received a command line specifying a nonexistent
drive.
CPIM
terminates the current program
as
soon as
you press any key. Press return key or CTRL-C to
recover.
"x"
is
one
of
the symbols described below and c
is
the command letter being executed when the error
occurred.

Command Buffer
Overflow
Meaning
> Buffer full. ED cannot put any more characters
in
the memory buffer, or the string specified
in
an F,
N,
or
S command
is
too long.
E Command aborted. A keystroke at the console
aborted command execution.
F Disk or directory full. This error
is
followed by
either the disk or directory full message. Refer to the
recovery procedures listed under these messages.
An
output
file
cannot be closed. You should take
appropriate action after checking to
see
if the correct
disk
is
in the drive and that the disk
is
not write pro-
tected.
CP
1M cannot write to the file. This usually occurs
because the disk
is
write-protected.
An output
file
cannot be closed. This
is
a fatal
error that terminates ASM execution. Check to see that
the disk
is
in the drive, and that the disk
is
not write-
protected.
The disk
file
written by a W command cannot be clos-
ed. This
is
a fatal error that terminates DDT execution.
Check if the correct disk
is
in the drive and that the disk
is
not write-protected.
This error can occur during SUBMIT
file
processing.
Check
if
the correct system disk
is
in the A drive and
that the disk
is
not write-protected. The SUBMIT
job
can be restarted after rebooting
CP/M.
PIP
cannot read the specified source. Reader may
-not
be implemented.
The destination specified in the
PIP
command
is
illegal. You probably specified an input device
as
a
destination.
A hex record checksum error
was
encountered. The
hex record that produced the error must be
corrected, probably hy recreating the
hex
file.
File contains incorrect data. Regenerate hex
file
from
the source.
The SUBMIT buffer allows up to
2048
characters
in
the input
file.
