[Coco] Level 1 & Drivewire

[Bill Pierce]

Bill, the repo "latest" has disk images of NitrOS9 L1 w/dw.
I have used L1 & DW4 with both my Coco 1 & my Coco 2 as well as with XRoar.
The only thing is the standard L1 DW distro disk does not leave much ram... you may need to strip out a few unneeded modules to get some memory back. The Coco 1 disks have dw drivers that run at 38400 baud (due to odd serial setup) and Coco 2 disk have drivers for 57600 baud (can't double speed a Coco 2).

DriveWire works nicely on NitrOS9 L1 :-)

Hey All,  I have a question.  Has anybody tried or is it even possible to use Drivewire on Level 1 Nitros9?I’m curious as I now have Neal Crooks Level1 Nitros9 with 4 DS Drives setup with 512K Ram (only 64k used under Level 1) and would like to get the further Drive access and communication a lot better.I have Drivewire Servers already setup and working from emulators, but wonder if Level1 has the same capability.Bill Nobel-- Coco mailing listCoco at maltedmedia.comhttps://pairlist5.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
