[Coco] Digger 3 demo doesn't work on 2mb coco3

[Brian Blake]

Just for clarity sake...

Will it not run on the 2MB CoCo 3 under any drive configuration?

Some software just flat out will NOT run under DW (or COCONET) if the
author created their own DSKCON routines and didn't use the disk basic
routines. You'll find some (or all?) of the Sundog games are like that, as
well as some of Bjork's games, IIRC.

The SDC will run anything I've ever thrown at is since it's a hardware
emulator.
