[Coco] too much work?

[CoCoList for Color Computer Enthusiasts]

Is the procedure for getting that working on the coco wiki with the DW stuff?
I'd like to get, for example, OS9L2BBS or one of the OS9 BBS's from bbsdocumantary.com site running.

Thought it'd be nifty to be able to relive the glory days at a moment's notice...

Although its not quite the same, you can do this with an emulator +
DriveWire, and you don't even need the serial server thingy.  Up to 14
concurrent telnet sessions to an OS9 system (if you can start that many
shells).   I think the nightly NitrOS9 disks have everything set up and
ready to go, just start inetd and telnet to port 6809 of your machine.

I keep meaning to add serial pass through so you can just use the regular
serial port for serial stuff, just haven't gotten around to it.  In the
specific case you mention though, that would actually work worse than what
we do have.
