If you decide to use YA-DOS with the CoCo3FPGA, you will need to flash it
to the same bank that you use for Brett's NitrOS9 SD loader.  That flash
slot on the CoCo3FPGA is reserved for alternate DOS's and can accommodate
16K roms like YA-DOS.  I'm not sure how the NitrOS9 SD boot loader works,
but perhaps we can see if Brett is able to incorporate that boot loader
into YA-DOS for those using a CoCo3FPGA.

I would be happy to share my configuration with you.  I need to also see if
Brett has made his latest version of YA-DOS available on his website.  I
believe there are some minor differences in the version I'm using over the
one you may currently have.

Thanks!
