[Coco] SDC Troubles

[Alex Evans]

I was saving a file in NitrOS9 and it quit working right, so I tried
shutting everything down, checking the FAT filesystem on the SD card and
bringing everything back up. Got so weird errors from the system, so I
formatted another SD card, and tried bringing everything back up. Checked
the output of 'DIR"/' and got the earlier error.

Next step was to double check the cards, so I brought up my second CoCoSDC,
reset it for the CoCo (it is usually for my TANO Dragon) then checked,
everything worked right.

So, the good thing is I do have a working SDC. Gotta figure out how to get
the other one back (if it is possible).
