What would be the best way for me to create a new system disk without CONFIG? I
want to add several modules, one new device, and remove two devices. I am now
using OS-9 Level II on a CoCo3 with 512K. I have 40tk double sided drive and
the FD-502 controller. I can support a RAMdisk by LOADing without fully
installing the descriptor. In fact, that's the device I am wanting to add. I
have tremendous difficulty getting a single-drive COPY to work, what usually
happens is that I get an entry in the destination disk's file allocation table
and swap disks again and again and again and again... but the
module/device/file is never actually written to the destination disk. But a
Dsave from /d0 to /r0 ought to work. Anyone got any ideas?
