I guess you're right about patching rsdos; forgot about track 0 for OS9.  But
that might not otherwise been a solution either; dunno.

As for dosor9, you should have the version updated for files larger than 32k. 
This should work for files up to about 62-64k.  My fix works only on this one. 
Check your version for the following lines:

-------
300 GOTO 9900
----
------
2300 ' binary string output
2320 N$="":FOR I=1 TO NS
2324 NN=NUM
2325 IF NUM>32767 THEN NN=NUM-32768  'fix for files >32k
2326 IF NN>32767 THEN NN=NN=32768-GOTO2326 'fix for >64k PGH 09/09/90 2330
N$=CHR$(NN AND 255)+N$
2340 NUM=INT(NUM/256)
2350 NEXT I:RETURN
9900 PCLEAR 1:CLS:CLEAR 2000:GOTO 500


  If your version matches this version and it still doesn't work,  make sure
your large file is the only one copied onto a newly formatted disk and try
again.  If it still doesn't work, I can send you a complete copy of mine for
comparison.  You are the first person to say whether  my version has worked or
not, other than myself,  altho some have said to have tried it; so I have no
new stats to recite.
  I've just converted a file of 44 grans using this modified dosor9!
