Re: Unable to boot OS9 on a real D64 using Gotek and FD502 controller

Hi Jackall, With a CoCo type controller you will always have some software compatibilities problems, even if you were to find or create CoCo-ised ROMs based on any of the other DragonDOS variants. This is always going to cause problems with OS9, though a fun project might be to create a boot disk th...

Re: Dragon 64 internal DS1315 RTC board

Nice work Stew! I had thought about the compiling approach, but disregarded it because it would mean throwing code into the process storage space under os9 which seemed a bit dirty. Fast work to get an implementation out ;-) I'm now thinking throwing code into that space is the only sane way to get ...
