Hello, I was trying to use mcomm to inject ts-dos-like-thing, and like you I could then install rxmgr but then things got messed up with the ROM images that I loaded via rexmgr. In the end I used a plain serial connection (at 300 baud so I could watch) and sent over rxcini.do from a pc. I had it running linux and used minicom. I was trying to use mcomm on my android phone and while it sent over what I assume is teeny or something very similar, there were defintely memory conflicts when I tried to bootstrap with mcomm. After everything was in place, mcomm worked just fine.

I was using mComm to inject TS-DOS via RUN"COM:98N1E" but after it loads I can no longer CLEAR 1000,62000 (even if I delete TS-DOS.BA<http://TS-DOS.BA>). However, I *now* know that the CLEAR command works fine from a clean M100 (as it should), and I determined that loading it via TEENY does work properly. I am able to get RXCMGR 1.0 to install fine now, but when I "install" a ROM image (ie.TSD101) from REXMGR the machine locks up. I can hit reset to recover but everything in memory is gone at that point. I did run the RXCTST and it reports no issues with memory. I can say that the last version ran fine, so I'm unsure of what to try next (and curious about the cause).

The ram file system gets damaged by the current version of RXCMGR. So it makes sense to clean house anyways.

Getting this error when I try to run RXCUTL.BA<http://RXCUTL.BA> for the update on an clean/empty M100: ?FC Error in 10 Ok If I run CLEAR 1000,62000 manually by itself I get the same error. I can omit this CLEAR statement in line 10 and it seems to install fine but then I have instability issues later.

Build 43 includes * bug fix: M100 directory corruption occurs on exit from CP/M. This is repaired now. * Date/Time/Sort function added to RXCMGR As usual, please report bugs! This bug was discovered by a very diligent user... I missed it completely! Version 2 utilities have had some improvements. * safer transfer: I've changed the embedded ML codes to be 7 bit ASCII encoding, not 8. * this should make serial transfer as a .DO file more robust. * I also included checksum on the embedded ML code * lastly, I have a 2 stage loader that is much faster now. Generally the utilities work the same, but please scan the wiki page for the instructions. Good luck with the upgrade. RXCINI is the utility you need. Remember, only load the new SW image.
