Robert,
I'm looking for 256 to 512 mb for Nitros9 and the standard dsks for Rsdos. There is a utility in the Ultimate CoCoSDC image though I have to edit the program for more than the 128mb it creates. I played with that program today with good results. From within NitrOS9 I'll need to manipulate the device descriptor to make use of the extra space. 
I take it that the Rom location is the same for hdbdos and sdc dos?

Doug,

You have not indicated how much you want for OS-9 vrs Disk Basic. You can easily use an emulator, 
MESS or VCC, to create a .vhd but the typical .vhd used with these emulators is about 129Megs.

Now you can easily make the .vhd larger either or both OS-9 or Disk Basic partition but it will 
involve altering the Basic offset values at $D938-$D93A in the ROM. If you want details, indicate 
exactly what you need on the list or write to me directly.

Robert
