Summary 09262: b2m: Regression - no longer can boot a floppy
Description This system was last able to boot a floppy in MESS 0.135 - it since regressed and nobody noticed.

Back then, software lists didn't exist, and so it was loose software. The item exists in the current software list but it isn't known if it can work from there. Probably best to extract the file and load it loose.

From mess:
>mess b2m -flop1 e:\data\Russian\b2m\DISK1.CPM
Steps To Reproduce >mame b2m -flop1 e:\data\Russian\b2m\DISK1.CPM

Hit enter (any key should work I believe), and it should immediately boot into a Russian version of CP/M at the A: drive.

But, although the cursor stops flashing, it just hangs there.
