First, there should not be any need to use os9.exe to create the disk as the 
Drivewire server will do that for you. Just mount a non-existent file name in 
the server and then format /x1 while running NitrOS-9 on your Coco. Just 
remember to force format to create an /x1 equal in size to your /d0 disk. The 
default for /x1 is $400 tracks.

Regards the Toolshed os9.exe, what is the format of the /d0 disk which you are 
trying to match? You can get that with the command:
free /x1
