There is also some other relevant documentation and files in the altair and imsai ftp directories. For the Altair there is the Altair 8800 Operator's Manual and for the IMSAI there is the IMSAI 8080 User's Manual. The z80pack ftp site has some documentation for the Altair and IMSAI machines which has been scanned in from the originals. I don't like the 3D version of the IMSAI, so I changed it to 2D: $ cd ~/z80pack/imsaisim $ mv z80pack-1.17 z80packĬompile the FrontPanel library: $ cd ~/z80pack/frontpanelĬopy the front panel library to /usr/lib $ cp libfrontpanel.so /usr/lib/Ĭompile the Altair 8800 emulator: $ cd ~/z80pack/altairsim/srcsimĬompile the IMSAI 8080 emulator: $ cd ~/z80pack/imsaisim/srcsim Unpack the source archive in your home directory: $ tar xzvf z80pack-x.y.tgzĬhange the directory it is extracted to, to make this article easier to explain.
More information can be found there, in particular, information on installing z80pack on non Linux/Unix systems. The following installation instructions are taken from the z80pack site. For installation instructions of the complete system, why not have a look at another article: Emulating a CP/M System With z80pack.įirst download the source (z80pack-x.y.tgz, currently z80pack-1.17.tgz) for z80pack from its ftp site. The following installation instructions are only for the Altair 8800 and IMSAI 8080 systems. If you've ever wondered what it would be like to use one of these machines, why not give it a try? Installing z80pack As well as being a superb emulator to run CP/M on, it now gives you a great graphical representation of the Altair 8800 and IMSAI 8080 with fully functional switches and flashing lights. Udo Munk has just released the latest version of his z80pack emulator, version 1.17, which now includes John Kichury's FrontPanel library.
