[Coco] Ramdisk under Nitros9

[Tim Fadden]

Thanks Bob,

That is the vhd image I have.  I haven't found any os9 boot disk images 
on it any where on the rsdos disk images.  got any pointers on what to 
use to boot Nitros09 on the os9 partition of the vhd image?
drive 254 has:
link.bas
filecopy.bas
findfile.bas
boot1.bas
specs.bas
boot2.bas
create.bas

Has it something to do with these?


Thanks,
 
Tim Fadden
