Me thinks Steven is looking for a doc or walkthrough on setting up NitrOS9 
on a hard disk.
Specifically, how to get his Burke&Burke HD setup. Folders on HD, bootup 
files, devices/descriptors
setup for booting NitrOS9 from the FDD and getting it to go as /dd on the 
hard disk, etc...

Picture setting up a brand-new HDD setup on a CoCo3 with NitrOS9 - he needs 
instructions on
setting the whole system up in HDD.
