Already done. It was worth it.
Btw, I can click Go and build it all in seconds now that it's a
Rainbow IDE project. 6551 boot module, NitrOS-9 virtual hard drive
image, CoCoNet EPROM, etc. The CoCoNet ROM builder actually
assembles the patch for Disk BASIC and overlays it on an existing
copy of Disk BASIC like it was LOADM'ed on the real CoCo. Thanks to
CCASM and Rainbow IDE, I've pretty much streamlined the process, give
or take a few snags.
