[Coco] OS9 vs RSDOS disks

[George Ramsower]

 Depending on you coco version, just type "dos". If it's an OS9 disk it will 
boot. otherwise, it won't or the disk is corrupted.
 Another way is to "DIR" the thing an see what you get. After that, type 
"dos".
 Anyway, the only way you can hurt you computer is by striking it sharply 
with a sledge hammer.

  Hi guys,
  Is there a simple way to tell an OS9 disk from an RSDOS disk? Maybe 
something constant in LSN0 on the OS9 disk?
  It would be nice to identify the disks through software

  Thanks
