Since you need the HDBDOS Drivewire version to use Drivewire, you do indeed have
labels on DECB disks. That function is built into HDBDOS/RGBDOS.
The label is stored at the end of the directory track. A labeled disk shows the
label when the DIR command is used.
RENAME DRIVE n,"string"
The above is used to label a disk or rename a disk. n Is any number 0-255.
"string" is the desired name using Basic's string rules.
Anyone using VCC can see the above, as RGBDOS is built in. MESS can also use
RGBDOS. For example:
OK
DIR 254
<OS-9 HARD DISK BOOT>
OK
