[Coco] Dragon64 / NitrOS9 Question

[Bill Pierce]

Brett, thanks for the info, but the question is all about the NitrOS9 drivers. I have slowly pieced together most of the info I need, but still question the use of the FD502 and any HD drivers on the Dragon64.
I'm trying to finish up BootMajik and I want to support the Dragon, but I also want to support any 3rd party hardware that was originally Coco oriented that will work on the Dragon64.
I will probably release BootMajik with only Coco 1, 2, & 3 support until I sort out the Dragon stuff.

Sorry to distract the thread.I would like to add one thing to tormod's  list:The dragon64 has a secondary *internal* ROM slot (is there any physicalchip there?).  The banking of which is controlled in the i/o area.  Thecoco2 does not have this ability.  I learned this after trying to boot thedragon port of fuzix on my coco2 (and failed)brett-- Coco mailing listCoco at maltedmedia.comhttps://pairlist5.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
