[Coco] make dskcopy not working

Hi all,

I just tried to build the nitros9 source tree here. It was much more 
successful than before (now that I have Toolshed working), but I still get 
errors when I do "make dskcopy". Example:

os9 copy -o=0 -l copying readme.first uucpbb21_6309.dsk,UUCP
os9 copy -o=0 uucpbb21_6809.dsk uucpbb21_6309.dsk 
/home/Bob_Devries/nitros9/dsks
Error: two or more sources requires target to be a directory.
Syntax: copy {[<opts>]} <srcfile> {[<...>]} <target> {[<opts>]}
Usage: Copy one or more files to a target directory.
Options:
-b=size size of copy buffer in bytes or K-bytes
-l perform end of line translation
-o=id set file's owner as id
-r rewrite if file exists

The directory /home/nitros9/dsks just gets a file "index.html" in it.

I did notice a number of error 248 I think in the creation of the Sierra 
games. Maybe the makefile is not creating the correct size disks?

I'll run the make again and capture the output.
See you in an hour or so.....   ;)
