If you have a VHD partitioned for RSDOS (pokes for the $5A000 offset), HDBDOS will not read the single DSK images as it is looking for the $5A000 ofset and the disk is only 180k. This makes copying the single images to the multis rather frustrating. Vcc handles this by 4 single disk drive imulations. On the Coco, the are the real drives.

Keep in mind that you can easily reset the $5A000 offset with POKEs on a Coco3.
Also DW4 has the option to adjust the RSDOS offset built into the gui. Look at
drive parameters - offset; which takes both decimal and hexadecimal numbers.
