The subject says it all really. Given the various images which RomWBW can boot to, do you have a go-to that you normally run? If so, which one and why?
Or do you pick based on what it is you're using your RC2014 for that day?

3.6.0 - because I... (ugh, let me shut off the irony alarms)... like to stay current. 

Seriously though, it's a retro modern system and I like keeping my finger on the pulse. If I had a OneROM or similar, I'd probably play around with more images/firmware. That said, I still have a 3.5.x CF card image I took from what shipped with my board.

Oh, and you probably meant the OS images the card's been flashed to... in which case CP/M, and mostly because it's closest to what is available in the CPem mode on my Idun cartridge.

Yeah, sorry, I meant the OS. So CP/M 2.2, ZSDOS, CP/M 3.0, BASIC etc

Boot into CP/M 3.0 and run the adventure games!

Spencer,

I have created my own custom disk image.

cpm3
utils
z80asm
tpascal
ws4
hitechc

utils is a dir I added to RomWBW build system with various utilities.

And default boot is always CP/M

Willy.
