[Coco] CocoSDC: updating OS9Boot

Hi all,

now that I have partitions working, I want to add the descriptor to the 
boot file.

I can use Kwikgen to add the descriptor to the OS9Boot file, and if I 
ident it, everything appears to be good. The values of DD.BT and DD.BSZ 
in LSN0 of the boot disk (/sd0) are correct.

But... it won't boot. I end up with *j at the end of the boot sequence, 
which IIRC, means error 234 - module not found.

As well, the module I added is not printed on the screen at boot time, 
suggesting that the boot sequence is not reading the new OS9Boot file 
but still reading the old one.

Can anyone suggest what I'm doing wrong?
Does the CocoSDC work differently? Does it store some information which 
is then not being updated?
