Boisy (or Mark, but this is more of a software Q),
I need a surefire way to detect if a CoCo3 is running HDB or RGB-DOS.
Currently I'm just PEEKing at the "HARD DISK BASIC" banner in memory.
Is this the same location/message for any version?
Is this likely to change in the future?
I'm making a unified installation disk for Color FOG which will determine the
correct
version to install (HDB vs. RSDOS) but currently all I have to go by is Robert
Gault's
emulator version of RGBDOS. One of my goals with FOG is user-friendliness, which
means asking the user as few questions as possible.
Thanks,
Bob
