[Coco] [Color Computer] Multivue under latest NitrOS9

I will definately go with the copy of files route.

So, booting the VHD, I can still access the drivewire files (assuming
I have DW drivers)?

 Nick, if you're going to boot from something else... then read the
manual :-)
 mainly, just copy all files from the directories they are in... to
the same directories on your VHD.... then type
 multistart
 before you run it though... you may want to take a look in the manual
at the settings for "env.file" this will be in your "/dd/sys/" dir
(after you copy the files). This is the config for your colors, mouse
and drives. You may want to edit it as it will most likely point to 3
or 4 floppy drives and a ram disk.... it needs to be set for your
specific drives.

 Again... it's OS9... It was supposed to make things easier, but it
was more agrivating to set up than running files from the command line
LOL
 Then you need "icons" for your files... "aif" files to configure them
for running... 
 It's all in the manual.
 Which by the way.... someone with good OCR skills needs to do the
MultiVue manual. It's really got a lot of good info on the graphics,
windowing and menuing systems built into OS9 L2
