Greetings all -- After trying to Google help on booting NitrOS9 on my Coco3
and coming up with nothing that has worked for me, I am hoping someone can
point me in the right direction. I've been trying to boot NitrOS9 for the
longest time and can't seem to get it going.
My setup:
* Coco 3 with serial to USB cable to my PC
* HBD-DOS v1.4 DW3 cartridge
* Drivewire 3 & 4. (I've tried both)
I mount the NitrOS9 disk image to drive0 in Drivewire and type "DIR" on the
Coco and all I get is an "OK" back. When I do a "DIR", I get "DRIVE=0
FREE=63" (blank floppy?).
Here are the NitrOS9 files:

nos96309l2v030300coco3_dw_headless.dsk
I've also tried the nos96309l2v030300coco3_cocosdc.dsk with the CocoSDC and
all I get when EXEC is a scrambled screen.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
