Format a single-sided, it must be single-sided,
floppy disk under OS9.
for instance: DMODE /D0 SID=1 ; FORMAT /D0
r "Boot NitrOS-9"
Os9gen the drivers that you need. Don't forget
to add 'Term' to the list of window descriptors.
Your default drive MUST be named: /DD, no matter
if it is a floppy or hard-drive. If you used
/H0 in the past, it should be renamed to /DD.
for RBF, use RBF.200
for SCF, use SCF.200
for PipeMan, use PipeMan.200
Include Clock at the last.

Do Not include CC3Go! It goes at the root of the
drive, /DD.
i.e. DIR /DD
OS9Boot CC3Go CMDS SYS
Using KUtil, replace the track 34 booter with
"boottrack.tandy".
KUtil -p /d0 boottrack.tandy
Copy to this floppy disk:
CC3Go ( ATTR CC3Go -w -pw )
making it un-writeable so it can't be deleted later.
Startup ( and inside
of StartUp is: )

Load /DD/CMDS/Utils1
Display c
List /DD/SYS/motd

Now you should be able to boot this disk from
OS9, because it's single-sided.
Now go back to CMDS and add any other commands
that you may want.
Like: Format, Edit, ReName, etc. Up to the "free"
size of the floppy.
Oh, by the way, you need a Hitachi CPU to run
NitrOS-9. Either a HD63C09EP or HD63B09EP,
or the plcc version(s) HD63C09ECP.
