Osborne 1 PC over RS232

Hi all,

I apologize if this question was already posted in past, but the search function didn't return a useful result...

I have an Osborne 1 with SS-SD disks. I would use the 22disk to transfer software from my IBM XT to the Osborne, but unfortunately 22disk only operate with SS-DD disks.

I decided to try the serial port transfer. I found this article:

that's quite interesting, but unfortunately it isn't a fully step-by-step instruction.

Does anybody has some specific instructions for that? I know nothing about CP/M, and I was looking for some dummy-proof instructions, like:
"1) type this on the DOS side... 2) type this on the Osborne side... You've done!"

In the specific, I don't know what software should I use neither on the XT (Telix? Laplink? Debug.com?), nor on the Osborne (PIP?).
Also, I don't know how to set the com speed on the Osborne...

Thank you for you help!

Giovi
