Thanks Charlie, 
DSKINI made it through ok, but this disk (which works fine in MESS) won't boot
properly on my real CoCo... It hangs at the NitrOS9 **Development build**
screen... (see below)

Back to the dsave issue... I get error 214 at the /dd prompt (no permission).
attributes for both drives show d-ewrewr.

On another front, I tried OS9.EXE. It made a disk from the original file, but
that disk won't boot on my real CoCo either. Hangs at the **development build**
screen.

That got me to wondering what's the difference between an emulator and my CoCo?
Well DUH!! I was using a 128K CoCo3. I tried the disk in my 3P, the only one
with 512K, and Viola! I'm glad the sound is better in real life than in MESS.

Thanks again Charlie!
Bob
