[Coco] RGBDOS in Mess

[John Orwen]

I do still have access to floppies as well as hard drive1.  I have not 
set up a second hard drive.

The error is the same one, I receive when I don't have the virgin 
disk11.rom in the subdirectory.  it is
[ One or more ROM missing - Please select a different game ]

I don't know what commands/text to put into coco_cart.xml to make MESS 
fall in love with it.  When I open coco_cart.xml in a browser window all 
I see are game carts and orch90 listed.  If you can supply that info, I 
would be happy to enter it in and give it another try renaming the 
rgb4mess.rom to disk11 and replacing the virgin one.
