CP/M can be run on a stand alone computer with its own video screen and keyboard or can be run on a computer which is accessed with a terminal. Like the Zeta from Sergey. So far I have seen running MS-DOS only on PCs and I was wondering what would have to be done to run it on a, for example IBM PC/XT, and accessing it over its COM port using a terminal.

I think it is "just" changing INT 10h and INT16h but I could be wrong. I have done some googling before inventing the wheel twice but I think I use the wrong keywords: I got a lot of feedback but not what I wanted. So any info is very welcome. Thank you in advance!
 
I thank you all for your answers but I see I have to go more in detail what I want to do. And thinking about it again, it has to do more with programming than software so I will ask the question there again.
