[Coco] Trimming NOS-9

[diegoba at adinet.com.uy]

I got basic09 from the original OS-9 disk 2.
I seem to remember those are in RTSI's ftp site...
I'll double check when I get home.

Hi Diego

I have several questions for you.  I have two 40 tracks  floppy drives, a
multi pack and a Super
IDE controler with CF with Nitr OS-9. Is it possible to have BasicO9 and
cmds on a second drive?

Also I have the manual for BasicO9 but cant find any software for the
BasicO9. How would I get a copy of this
program?

John
