I noticed that the page is now back up. Unfortunatly I couldn't find what I
was hoping for. As I understand the latest and greatest version of os9gen has
a bug in it which presents itself when building a kernel for use on a CF card
that is partitioned for use by HDB and Nitros9

I am having another problem that I'm hoping I can get some help with. I have a
CF card that I bought today with the idea of installing both HDB and Nitros9 onto.
(Interestingly enough I think I found a bug with HDB and it's dealing with the
particular brand of card I have. Any data written to the card with "save" or "copy"
is lost at reboot. However if written to the virtual file with "backup" it's fine.
The card works fine with nitros though. <Boisy if you have any interest in this let
me know and I'll send you the card when I get a replacement>) What I need is a "bootlist"
and script that will allow me to gen a bootable floppy. Amoung the modules I need
installed is the hardware clock on my superide card, Superdriver and drivewire. I have
the modules I need but I just can't seem to build a os9boot file that will boot. :-(
It would help if someone could email me what you have working for you for the 6309.
