[Coco] ovcc update

[Walter Zambotti]

I took the empty.vhd from the archive and renamed it to empty.img.

I inserted it into the IDE Master and hard reset, but it still doesn't find a LBA hard drive.

I then entered:

Drive on
Dskini 0
?io error.

So the empty vhd in the archive doesn't seem right!

I read the HDBDos manual regarding the offset but this is for OS-9 partitions.

At the moment I would be happy if it was working with floppies.

You need to make your own image. It uses the standard os9/rsdos partition scheme just like hdbdos for dw and rgbdos. You'll have to set the offsets as described in the hdbdos manual. You just make a standard vhd then rename it to ".img".
