[Coco] [Color Computer] Creating a DSK file on a real coco..

[George Ramsower]

 Do we have a utility to convert a bootable, OS9 Level two, floppy disk to a 
DSK file?
 This utility should run on a REAL CC3?

 I would imagine it would need to be written for only a 512K machine so the 
file could be saved to another disk(if you only have a single disk system).

 My main coco is a 6809, 512K CC3 with 3.5, 5.25 floppy drives and a SCSI 
drive. So, I have room to do lot's of stuff with it. I have ramdrives also.

 However, I can't find any way to share some of my stuff, because I can't 
find a utility to run on a Coco that will create a DSK file of a bootable 
floppy.
 This XP box I am talking on now won't work with a coco disk. I have a 
working communication with one of the coco's com ports. If I could make a 
DSK file of a coco floppy (on my coco), I could transfer it to this XP box 
and share it.

 I do not use nitros9. I have all the latest, greatest old patches to fix 
bugs(I think), but it's basically stock OS9 L2 on a stock machine.

 Any suggestions?


George
