[Coco] NitrOS9 + CoCo SDC (30M) - How to access real floppy?

[Doug Fraser]

Ed,
Try looking for d0 or d1 for the rb1773 driver in the modules directory.  I've had the convention of renaming the floppy descriptors as f0 and f1 as dd, d0 and d1 were for my hard drive,  and now my CoCoSDC device.  I think the descriptors are named /d0_40d.dd or /d0_80d.dd for the rb1773 driver.   Doug

In a post dated Wed May 2, Doug Fraser said:
"When you boot off the CoCoSDC into NitrOS9, do an 'mdir' command. If you
see the 'rb1773' driver and 'f0' or 'f1' descriptors in memory then all you
need do is a 'dir /f0' or 'dir /f1, with a disk in the drive to access the
files. If rb1773, f0 and f1 aren't in memory then they will need to be
added with the kwikgen command.

The NitrOS9 modules are in /dd/nitros9/6309l2/modules/rbf IIRC."

I just did a pull of the repo and built all level 2 6309 dsk images. I
cannot find and reference to the f0 and/or f1 modules either via
midair to by examining the RBF directory.

I also looked through the asm files and cannot did and reference to
either f0 or f1.

Does anybody have some guidance for me?
