You can copy DWDOS to an RSDOS floppy and load and boot NitrOS-9 over
DriveWire from that. It is a bit faster than loading HDBDOS just for
running "DOS". But I don't see why you have to load HDBDOS from tape
if you have a physical drive (floppy drive I suppose?), so maybe I am
missing something.

DWDOS would also be a much smaller .wav than HDBDOS.
