Hi Michael - you're probably pretty close... does a "dir /d1" (or wherever) of
the disk you tried to make readable, show any files?
If so, then you're in good shape. Now copy the files over to a *real* OS9
disk.... where you can do more operations on them (the rsdos->os9 disk thingie
doesn't really make it a full os9 disk, so you must get the files onto a real
os9 disk).
From there, we'll have to give a little more help, I suspect... which will
depend upon which files you downloaded. Some files are archived (compressed)
and need Ar (AR09.BIN in lib 9) to break out, some are ready-to-go (you'll have
to do "attr filename e pe" on those to make them loadable; and some may be text
files etc... just as with any computer downloads.
Let us know which files, and we'll get you rolling quickly as possible.
best - kev
