[Coco] Patching NitrOS9 for 8 meg

[Dave Philipsen]

It would be nice for OS9 to access the full 8 meg as system/user memory but I doubt that anyone is going to jump on that task unless there's a real need. It wouldn't seem to be a simple matter.

You assume correctly.  I have successfully booted OS9 and the memory 
command shows 1960kB.  I also have used the NoCAN extensions via the 
driver Curtis noted to create a large RAM disk with the rest of the memory.
