[Coco] I need copies of unmodified OS-9 disk images

Hi,

That was just an impression from reading many persons having problems. And
my idea of what the basic structure of MESS is.

As I have stopped reading all posts I will try and refrain.

It was more an attempt to say that I thought that Jeff's and John's emulator
were faster to set up and run. I may be wrong on that point. And there
cannot be any messages about the developers not responding as there are
none.
