[Coco] Drivewire help needed

[Jeremy Michea]

Hi, I meant I loaded the drivewire server as I usually do. I'm not sure what 
an MPI is but I just plugged the rompak into the cart slot as I would any 
other rompak.

Yes, I'm using a coco 3 with the coco 3 version of the rompak:

HDB-DOS 1.2 DW3 COCO 3

Is the message just before the OK prompt.

Let me ask this: What text normally shows up in the log window of the 
drivewire server while loading virtual disks? I'm trying to remember and I 
don't think anything did before today, which was why I thought all these 
lines about checksums was very strange and indicitive of a problem.
