  No also tryed

os9 dsave -e . ../newvirtualos9disk.dsk,

fails as well.

tried without the -e and redirected the script to out

GOT
os9 makdir "../Quilt-Release-1.0.dsk,/.."
os9 copy './../BOOT-SeptDEV.dsk' 
'../Quilt-Release-1.0.dsk,/../BOOT-SeptDEV.dsk'  -b=32768
os9 makdir "../Quilt-Release-1.0.dsk,/../.."
os9 makdir "../Quilt-Release-1.0.dsk,/../../TESTING"
os9 copy './../../TESTING/BOOT-SeptDEV.dsk' 
'../Quilt-Release-1.0.dsk,/../../TESTING/BOOT-SeptDEV.dsk'  -b=32768
os9 makdir "../Quilt-Release-1.0.dsk,/../../TESTING/.."
os9 makdir "../Quilt-Release-1.0.dsk,/../../TESTING/../TESTING"

.....
and after 120+ more lines of this nonsense

os9 makdir 
"../Quilt-Release-1.0.dsk,/../../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING/../TESTING

*** buffer overflow detected ***: os9 terminated
Aborted (core dumped)

Also tried using the absolute path same problem.

I am going to write some basic09 code to take the output of the linux ls 
-LR1 command and create
a script for toolshed to import linux files into a os9 disk.
So I can run ls -LR1 > out in linux copy out to my os9 system and run a 
basic09 program to create the
script that linux can run to import all those files.

Convoluted yes but better than having to manually copy one file at a 
time from linux to os9.

What would really be amazing, but way beyond what I could figure out how 
to do would be
to be able to make it possible for linux to mount a .dsk file and then 
treat it just like a
any other mounted partition.
