Thanks. I guess I need more help. So let me explain everything.

I'm trying to use the DAGGOPATCH to play Dungeons of Daggorath on a 
disk system.

I found this nice web site on how to save my DoD rom pak to tape.
http://home.att.net/~robert.gault/Coco/Unpublished/CART2RAM.html

I did what it says, but when I run TAPEGEN I always get an IO error 
in 150.

When I try to use MPAKGEN with my multipak interface in my COCO3 I 
get a wierd result. I put my Disto SCII in slot 4 and the DoD rom 
pak in slot 1. When I run MPAKGEN it searches for the pak and then 
the Ext Disk Basic 1.1 logo appears on screen and nothing happens.

Thats wierd cause when I 1st boot the COCO3 it says Ext disk basic 
2.1.

So I either need someone to send me a "dumped" DISKDAG file, or to 
tell me what I can do to make this work.

Also, I do have DoD dumped to a disk .BIN file. I did that a long 
time ago. I don't know if there is a way to use that file to help me.

Thanks.

Charlie
