	Works fine for me. Newest Nitros9 from CVS, and newest server code (linux 
version) from CVS.

	I did let the makefile build my disk. nitros9/level2/coco3/bootfiles/makefile 
has this entry replacing the original floppy build:

# NitrOS-9 disk bootfile to allow booting from WD1773 disk controller
BOOTFILE_40D	= $(MD)/krnp2 $(MD)/ioman $(MD)/init \
		$(MD)/rbf.mn \
		$(MD)/rbdw3.dr $(MD)/dw3.sb \

	I can access the floppies, Compact Flash, CDRom, or Drivewire.

Bootfile is $8193 (33171)
