Well I didi it again....
This VHD is the US OS9 User's Group files, the Sierra Online game collection and the Rainbow On Disk OS9 files. This disk still has some room on it so I may be expanding it further.

No, this is not the same disk I just uploaded :-)

The RSDOS partition has the Rainbow On Disk/Tape disks.
To use the RSDOS partition, you must set the offsets in HDBDOS to $5A000.
>From DECB type:

POKE &HD938,5:POKE &HD939,&HA0:POKE &HD93A,0

or set the DriveWire disk parameter offset to $5A000

There may be a few files missing from the collections as some were corrupted. Also, several disks from OS9UG collection were missing.

Subject: [Coco] User Group and Collections VHD

Hi Guys,I finally finished the "User Group and Individual Collections OS9.vhd"Each collection is in it's own directory and each file archive is uncompressed to it's own directoryThe archive includes (OS9) OCN, Princeton, RTSI, CIS-OS9, and The Color Computer Disk Image Archive.These are all OS9 archives and searchable with any OS9 search utility. Stick this vhd into drivewire and have access to one of the largest single disk, uncompressed archive collections on the internet.It has taken me about 3 months of decompressing all the files from each archive and moving to proper directories.The one thing I didn't do, is set all the attributes. As most any OS-9 user knows, when you decompress a file, it's attributes are not set. So you will have to do this when you want to use a file.Here's the link:https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23059963/Stuff/User%20Group%20and%20Individual%20Collections%20OS9.vhdIt will also be available from my website under the utilities page.This vhd rplaces the previous RTSI vhd I had up before as RTSI is included here.If the link doesn't work, try again later as it may still be uploadingEnjoy :-)Bill PierceMy Music from the Tandy/Radio Shack Color Computer 2 & 3https://sites.google.com/site/dabarnstudio/Co-Webmaster of The TRS-80 Color Computer Archivehttp://www.colorcomputerarchive.com/Co-Contributor, Co-Editor for CocoPediahttp://www.cocopedia.com/wiki/index.php/Main_PageE-Mail: ooogalapasooo at aol.com--Coco mailing listCoco at maltedmedia.comhttp://five.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
