Hm, I'm running CP/M 2.2 and CP/M 3.0 under COHERENT 4.0. Years ago I wrote
a Z80 emulation in C, to test it I wrote the hardware needed for CP/M in C :)
and tested the CPU emulation with CP/M and some programs. The package also
includes a Z80 cross-assembler to assemble the BIOS and boot loader. I've used
it on various UNIX systems, I bet it also runs under Linux without changes.
The package may be copied and used free of fee for personal non commercial
use. An older release is available from raven.alaska.edu, if someone is
willing to upload my current version to raven, let me know and I'll email
it (I have no ftp access and not enough time to email it to everyone who
wants it).
