Is the driver in NitrOS-9 the SuperDriver Cloud-9 used to sell? If so, awesome.

There was an RS-DOS utility with RGB-DOS that would do this, but it was not part of the HDB-DOS disk I bought.

For OS-9, I expected there would be a getstat call in the SCSI driver I could use, but I don't have documentation on this.

I will take a look. Hopefully I can compile that scsiquery command and it will work with the super driver. I am using the KenTon low level driver, and just need to figure this out so I can make sure I have formatted and tested all my SyQuest drives and then I can sell them.

I also am using SuperIDE for the clock! I need to find a clock solution for once I let the SuperIDE go to a new home.
