[Coco] NitrOS9 boot

When I boot into NitrOS9, I get a screen on my little TV that is green with
black letters, and it VERY HARD to see. I know how to change the screen
after boot, but how can I change the bootup to come up with the screen I
want? Bold black letters on a white background work fine for me. (Old 13"
TV)

Plus, has anyone written a NitrOS9/DriveWire Syntax tutorial? I'm not sure
how to address DriveWire from OS9. I know that the DriveWire disks are /x0,
/x1, /x2, and /x3. But how about the floppies? When I type 'dir /dd' I get
the directory of the DriveWire 'floppy', and typing something like 'dir /d1'
or 'format /d1' just puts the Coco into la-la land and it just kinda
freezes. I have to reboot to do anything.

Thanks
