Thanks Steve.
Do you know which IC stores the lower 8K of rom and which one has the upper 8k?

On the Dragon 32 the 16k rom is split into two roms: IC17 & IC18.
On my Dragon, IC17 is socketed while IC18 is soldered. Is this the standard configuration?
Which IC stores the lower 8K of rom and which one has the upper 8k?

The DLOAD experiment looks very promising! The way I see it, if Drivewire is a virtual floppy drive, DLOAD is essentially an ultra-fast virtual cassette tape. It could be a great solution for running programs that can't be run from disk due to memory constraints/conflicts. I think the perfect soluti...

VERY nicely done, tormod
This is a must have for every Dragon user, IMHO.

As promised the exclusive CF image for Dragon/Tanos: http://www.mediafire.com/?40jau3q4zaewk8o There is a lot of coco2/3 stuff on it, but from 100 - 131 we have dragon dos disks converted to rs-dos. So you can play moon cresta, back track, chuckie egg direct from SuperIDE. Also two OS-9 flavours: o...

Steve ,
For the new repository use as shown under http access here: http://sourceforge.net/p/toolshed/code/ ... ee/hdbdos/

When I click on the link to download cf_dragon.img.7z it swaps it for a file named iLividSetup-r157-n-bf.exe (claimed to be a download manager :o ). Where is the link to download only the cf_dragon.img.7z file directly? http://download1578.mediafire.com/fm3a6id1h0hg/40jau3q4zaewk8o/cf_dragon.img.7z

So it's needed to change the EPROM on the dragon board? So the dragon works as a CoCo? Not anymore! This was previously needed because HDB-DOS wasn't compatible with the Dragon roms. Now that tormod has ported HDB-DOS to the Dragon 32 / 64, you can use Drivewire with the Dragon's original roms. See...

Drivewire can be run equally well on the Dragon 32 / Dragon 64 / Tano Dragon :D The adapter cable is plugged into the Dragon's parallel port which is available on all Dragons. The adapter basically converts the Dragon's parallel port to a bit-banger serial port. Have a look at the instructions in th...

A floppy controller is not required to run DriveWire.
The only hardware that is required is a a Drivewire adapter cable, and of course a PC/Mac/Linux as the Drivewire Server.
