[Coco] In need of a 1987 GIME

[Charlie Pelosi]

Thanks!
I was able to make the 3 disks with drivewire. When I put the PATIRON disk in drive 1 and the IRONFRT1 disk in drive 0, DRIVE1 RUN"BOOT it prompts me to have the disks in the correct locations, then I get "the defeater" logo screen. It switches to an 80 column screen says formatting track 0 lists a few files and hangs there. Doesn't seem to be a working copy, unless there is something wrong with my setup here... standard dual 360K drives, fd501 controller, 512K coco3.
Any ideas?

Tested in multiple coco's with multiple GIME chips. Too bad too, as these are the only copies I know of, besides originals of course. I doubt there is any way to get original copies now.
