Hi Aaron,

You could add an option: create a image dsk from a folder. Then you get all
the files inside the folder and put into an image in ram.

If you update a file on host PC it won't be visible for the coco, unlesse
you umnount and mount again. Also, writing back to pc would not be
supported but you could save the image to a dsk like any image in ram.

Probably you would need an option to set the disk size and system:decb or
os9
