My question is: the HDBDOSCC1 is supposed to run on a coco2 in 38400 ?

I tried many different CC1 versions on a coco2 and all I get is I/O error
and on drivewire invalid commands. HDBDOSCC2 works fine there in 57600. Why
I want to use CC1 ? I'm just checking it since Juan and Daniel weren't
unable to run it on their coco1s and clones.

I'll give a try on this Robert Gault's version today.
