Hello. I'm new to the world of CP/M and after I finally built a Zeta SBC (v2) featured here (http://www.malinov.com/Home/sergeys-projects/zeta-sbc-v2), I realized that the OS is not linked anywhere.

I thought CP/M was now open source but I could be wrong.

Anyway, is there somewhere I can download a legit copy to run on that computer?

Thanks for any tips.

It is and it isn't... The source is available but I wouldn't call it "four
freedoms compliant", so I wouldn't call it "open source".

Zeta is primarily supported at the RetroBrew Computers Wiki (http://www.retrobrewcomputers.org) and RetroBrew Computers Forum (http://www.retrobrewcomputers.org/forum). RomWBW is a complete software system for Zeta including ROM firmware, BIOS, CP/M, and applications. You will find RomWBW on the RebroBrew Computers Wiki at the RomWBW page (https://www.retrobrewcomputers.org/doku.php?id=software:firmwareos:romwbw:start)

Thanks,

Wayne
