I'm a bit confused...
I mount my Nitros-9 image into Drive 0. This is 4608K in size.
I then mount my MultiVue disk into Drive 1. This is 360K in size.
I boot NitrOS-9 and I can read the first disk as /sd0 fine, no problems.
I can also read the second as /sd1, no problems.
It seems I should not use /d0 or /d1 because I will lose all disk access.
Should I use /sd0 and /sd1 instead of /d0 & /d1?
Should the /d0 and /d1 devices be removed from the boot so they are not
used?
How do I tell what image is a LBA and which are the other?
