[Coco] working with the sdc

I also use the SDC to launch DW. I do it slightly differently

I use a routine that Barry Nelson wrote for the cocoflash. It auto detects which coco you are using and launches the appropriate version of DW
I put this on the root of the SD card and just select HDBDOS. If the SDC is in my coco3 it launches HDB-DOS dw3, if in my coco1 it launches HDB-DOS dw1

I think the CoCoSDC manual is one of the better ones for CoCo hardware.
I've found Chapters 3 & 4 particularly useful, especially since I'm using both the CoCoSDC and Drivewire together. I put HDB-DOS in one of the flash banks in case I want to use it instead of SDC DOS. So many cool options!

Hi Gene,

Please take a look at…

http://cocosdc.blogspot.com/

Especially the user guide (.pdf on the right side).

The firmware has gone through several updates since that run,
you can find the updated firmware on that site as well.
