[Coco] working with the sdc

[Zippster]

I can’t imagine there’d be too much of a demand for that, though you
could probably do something pretty easily with a SATA to IDE bridge
and use current DOS’s that will do IDE/PATA.

I barely ever touch OS9/Nitros9, but you should be able
to use the SDC and a large virtual drive image for this.

Others have done it, maybe this will be helpful...

Aren’t there some .VHD’s already set up out there?
