Subj: COULD YOU ASK ON CI$?
Hugo,
 
Could you ask if anyone has ever gotten a hard drive 
made for the TRS-80 Model II to work on the CoCo (OS-9 Level II)?
 
I was given an 8 meg hard drive.  Supposedly it is a primary drive.  I *HAVE* 
Tandy's Primary Hard Drive Controller for the CoCo.  (Actually the thing is an 
interface.  The controller is supposed to be built in to the drive.)
 
Surely some must have tried using a Model II drive on the CoCo.  I have no 
docs.  When I plug it in.  The CoCo usually starts to boot OS-9 then crashes.
 
I was attempting to use the Level I CCHDisk driver and descriptors.
 
Be nice if I could get it to work.  But I need more info to do anything.
 
Thanks.
