[Coco] CocoPi3 cannot load disk images

[Ron Klein]

Hi Bob,

I can work with you offline, sir.

DECB will only recognize 160K floppy DSK images.  Is that what you are
using?  Some of the NitrOS9 images are hard drive based, so you will need
to use HDB-DOS (rather than DECB).  You can then mount the hard drive image
in MAME in the HARD DISK section or you can mount them in Drivewire (which
is already running on the CocoPi3).

I''ll send you a private email so we can exchange messages.

Thanks!
