Allen,

I remember seeing the drivers, but failed to ask where you got them 
from?  Are they available?  Where is the source code for the drivers?

Can you explain the lock-up?  Is it a total freeze, or just that the 
copy command hangs?

FWIW, I'm making steady progress on the NitrOS-9 IDE drivers for the 
SuperIDE.  llide now handles ATAPI drives, and I've tested a CD-ROM and 
a DVD-ROM on the CoCo 3 using an RBF CD-ROM and they both work fine.  
ATAPI ZIP drives are next.
