Bill, don't run off.  I think you hit the all-time most unpopular 
statement and it rattled a few cranky people, that's all.  No biggie 
around here and nothing personal.

Just saying " It doesn't work " doesn't leave any starting point for 
someone to help you get it working.

HOWEVER, if anybody agrees with you about the NitrOS-9 disks being a 
pain in the butt, it's me.  Wow.  Only 10+ different 
versions/formats/builds, and if that isn't enough to scare you, 
putting in a 35-track SS copy of one of the .dsks and getting the OK 
prompt after typing DOS is just too much for me.

But that's not it!  Let's say you actually found a .dsk that starts 
to boot.  You see a long string of "......"'s following by the 
Crashola message.  Have you got to that point yet?  :)
