[Coco] NitrOS9 and B&B XT-RTC

Here is what I'm trying to do that isn't working….

I've booted from Nitros9 6309 image from DW.
I've copied the ddmaker and bbhdisk.dr files to /dd/cmds
I've run ddmaker hd to make a new descriptor for the hard drive using the bbhdisk.dr driver.

I then load bbhdisk.dr and load hd.dd

dir /hd just hangs….hitting break will result in everything giving an error 207 out of memory.

What am I doing wrong?


Thanks,

Philip
