Hi, 

Now that I have the ESP32 FDC+ server setup, connected to my IMSAI-JAIR computer, using Serial CP/M to BOOT CP/M 2.2b from the µSD card.  

How do I get into the "EDIT" mode other than plugging the USB into my PC direct?  

I can ftp to the ESP32 FDC+ adapter to add/subtract .DSK files or a .BAT file, but how do I UnMount and Mount different .DSKs via WiFi?

When you open a new connection in TeraTerm, select TCP/IP and Telnet, then enter the IP address of your ESP32 in the “Host:” field. Click “OK”.

 

After connecting, you may need to go to Setup->Terminal and enable local echo to see what you’re typing. I don’t know why. Putty and every other telnet client I have tried does not require this. TeraTerm must default to not be telling the telnet server to echo based on your local echo setting. My suggestion is to use Putty which behaves properly.

Hi, 

Okay, all my confusion was because when I hit <ENTER> at the prompt ... I don't get anything back ... but just now I tried a "?" and now I see I can type in commands ...
