[Coco] CF Image for Dragon32/64/Tano

[Retro Canada]

you just set a different offset and number of sectors for each /DD. all distros share the same /I0 data partition starting at zero offset.

boot on drive 251 or 252 and do:

dmode /DD 

to see the offsets. drive 254 is a coco3 6809 boot. i made this distro from my working coco one.

Then at what offsets are each OS9 partition accessed at. I know how to do this with hdbdos, but not quite sure how you would implement this in OS9. And how about drive descriptor settings?

no i created multiple partitions to make room for several os-9 flavours like 
level1, level1 lowercase, level2, level2 6309 and even os-9 2.0 (phoenix) 
version.

That, generally, starts at the next sector after the end of the os9 
partition, so if DD.DSK in LSN0 is the first 3 bytes, and for os9 it is, 
then add one to that to set your offset in HDB-DOS, that will be the start 
of vdisk0. 630 sectors.  Then vdisk1 starts at DD.DSK + 1 + 630, etc etc 
until you have the 256 virtual drives, if the media is big enough.
