[Coco] Adding SCBBT and T1 the easiest way?

[Bill Pierce]

Kandur... I believe he just showing you where all the modules are, not suggesting using drivewire.
Every Nitros9 distribution disk has a "NitrOS9" directory containing all the NOS9 modules.
These can easily be copied to "real floppies" and "real hard disks".... as far as I know, the NitrOS9 modules are ONLY available in an "image" format an cannot be obtained any other way exept builing the repo yourself and extracting the "real" files to a "real" disk with a "real" PC the moving them to a "real" Coco...

Thank you.
Maybe I am a masochist,  but like to do everything on a real Coco.
Real floppies and SCSI hard drives, as little use of DW, if possible,
not using any of the emulators, or a PC. I know it is slower this way,
it's painful in almost 2015, but I like it.
