[Coco] Dragon64 / NitrOS9 Question

[Bill Pierce]

I'm reposting this as many may have missed it over the holidays and I reall need this info.

Dragon guys... I have been working on my "BootMajik" automated NitrOS9 boot making utility and I want to include the Dragon64 as well as the Tano Dragon64.
I know the Dragon has a paralell port and that port is supported in the NitrOS9 repository in the builds for the Dragons. My question is on the serial interface. Is the Dragon serial port the same as a Coco or does it require a different driver?
The disks built for the Dragon and available in the repo have descriptors for the serial port (t2 & t3, Serial Pak?), but no driver (??). The "bootlist" supplied on the disk for making new os9boot files is absolutely useless as it seems to be the Coco2 bootlist and not the Dragon. In fact, the bootlists on all the NitrOS9 disks need a major makeover as all are incorrect in that they reference files that don't exist or files that have been renamed. These really need reworking and I hope to get to that soon.
Which reminds me, does anyone know if the RBSuper drivers (lltc3, llide, & llsdc) and the drivewire drivers work on the Dragon?
