For a complete treatment of IDE interfacing to 8-bit CPUs (particularly the
Z80 family), check out issues 56, 63, 64, and 66 of The Computer Journal
http://www.psyber.com/~tcj/. There is a simple IDE interface for the Z80
called GIDE (Generic IDE). It should be possible to adapt it to other 8-bit
processors.
