## MS2000 Microdisk Development System
<!-- This file is automatically generated. Do not edit. -->
The RCA MicroDisk Development System MS2000 is a highly obscure (i.e. I gather
that single digit numbers of original machines exist) development system for the
RCA1802 series of CPUs, as made famous by the Cosmac ELF. It was a fairly
straightforward big bag o'RAM system with a 2kB boot ROM, 62kB of RAM, twin
floppy drives and a serial terminal --- CP/M users will find it very familiar.
Read and writing disks is currently not supported by FluxEngine, but there is
basic support for the MicroDisk operating system's file system. This should
allow files to be read from MS2000 disk images.
The disks are normal DD 3.5" disks, using a 70-track, single sided variation of
the venerable IBM floppy disk scheme, so allowing 315kB of storage per disk.
If you have access to flux files for MS2000 disks, please [get in
touch](https://github.com/davidgiven/cpm65/issues/new) --- I would like to add
better support for these.
