When I said "DriveWire ROM" I meant either a .ROM (in EPROM) or .BIN via
LOADM/CLOADM.  I was looking for a way to just jump straight from Vanilla
ECB1.1  > DOS > NitrOS9+DriveWire and this worked.

This is pretty much what DWDOS (source in Toolshed) does. There are DWDOS
files for floppy, cassette and ROM. But I am not sure I understand what you
mean by "DriveWire ROM".
