;; This example will install a RSX command which can be used
;; to get and put a boot sector to a SYSTEM/VENDOR disc.
;;
;; The boot sector can be executed with a |CPM command.
;;

.kl_find_command	equ	&bcd4
.kl_log_ext			equ	&bcd1	

;; call &8000 to install RSX commands:
;;
;; |BOOTGET,<drive>,<addr>
;; get track 0, sector &41 on drive <drive> and write it to <addr>
;;
;; |BOOTPUT,<drive>,<addr>
;; put track 0, sector &41 on drive <drive> and read from <addr>
