[coco] For Boisy or Mark ref Super Driver

Boisy,

I haven't dug into the docs yet (I assume this is covered there), but 
care to talk a bit about accessing HDB-DOS partitions via SuperDrivers? 
  I assume you can make a descriptor that knows how to seek out to where 
those sectors are stored, and somehow understands to only look at the 
256-bytes at the start of each sector?  (So I could, by theory, use the 
"rsdos" command to put/get things from an HDB-DOS drive?)

I am also needing to brush up on getting a boot image onto HDB-DOS.  If 
I recall, with the old Kenton stuff, I would make a boot floppy that 
included the Kenton "boot" module, then simply back that up to an 
RGB-DOS drive and run a link utility on it, allowing "DOS #" to boot.  
Has any of that changed?

I plan to make Sub-Etha's MultiBoot available, which allows up to 16 
os9boot files to be put on one disk (though this may or may not have 
assumed 40 track double sided; I forget -- regardless, it's limited by 
disk space either way).  Then, I'd like to create an easy way to 
manipulate all of that from the OS-9 side so no trips to RS-DOS were 
needed.  Hmmm.  Might already be done???

It will be awhile (possibly mid-late October) before I can really start 
looking into this.
