[Coco] Unleashing the Dragon: native HDB-DOS/SuperIDE for Dragon32

[Mark Marlette]

Not sure about the WiFi SD cards ATM, not sure how open their protocol is.???

There is no limitation on my end on the .img file...

Oh...forgot to mention the cart will also have 512K of SRAM on it.

So I supposed the WiFi SD cards  will be supported as well ?

We will be able to transfer files wirelessly to it :)

How is it going to be with OS-9 parittions ? Big .IMG files on it ?
