[Coco] NitrOS9 partitions

Hi all,

Is there any way that NitrOS9 can use partions on the likes of CocoSDC?

I know that OS9/68K does do this with a parameter in the device 
descriptor. It used a (IIRC) three byte offset to the starting sector of 
the partition, and uses uniquely named descriptors for the partitions, 
such as /H0a, /H0b etc.

I see there are some settings that show up when I use dmode, which are 
ofs=, wpc=,rwc. I don't appear to have information about these settings. 
Can someone point me to docs? Help dmode doesn't explain the settings.
