I'm using the "V03.02.04 Release - August 3, 2004" of "NitrOS-9/6809 Level 2 for
the CoCo 3." I converted them by using the DSKINI.EXE that was provided from
<http://www.nitros9.org/> and I downloaded everything today around 7pm CST. :)

Here's what I did to convert them:

C:\> CD MYDOCU~1\DOWNLO~1\NITROS9
C:\My Documents\downloads\nitros9> DSKINI /T40 /D B: NOS968~1.DSK
- OUTPUT -
C:\My Documents\downloads\nitros9> DSKINI /T40 /D B: NOS968~2.DSK
- OUTPUT -

The NOS968~1.DSK = NOS96809L2V030204_DS40_1.DSK
The NOS968~2.DSK = NOS96809L2V030204_DS40_2.DSK

The output said that each DSKINI was sucessful. I then took it to my Coco 3 and
put in the first disk, typed "DOS<ENTER>" and you saw what I got in my first
post.

Oh, and I used DS DD 5.25" disks, also. :)

Everything above board so far? :)
