Well, I downloaded them and installed them on my Mac, and neither one of
them will boot. My mistake

The 40d is for 40 track disk... not 40 column screen
I don't think there's any distros with a 40 column screen. Just get your
current boot to look like you want, then format a disk in /d0, type "cobbler
/d0", copy your cmds & sys to the disk and you got it.

good luck

Wouldn't nos96809l2v030209coco3_40d_1.dsk and
os96809l2v030209coco3_40d_2.dsk be what I want?

Bill,
Unless you really like the challenge, there is no need to reinvent the
heel. 
se the script, mb.floppy, on the appropriate 80d disk from
ttp://www.nitros9.org/latest/
n the directory NITROS9/6X09L2/SCRIPTS.
ou have not indicated whether you want a 6809 or 6309 image which is why
here 
s an X above.
Change the entry that contains rel_80 to rel_40 and run the script. That
ill 
uild the disk you want.
