We have been running OS/9 on our CoCos for about 2 months.  It makes
absolutely no difference whether you're using Radio Shack or other
drives.  We have our device descriptors modified such that the step
rate is 6ms instead of 30.  This is very simple, and is documented in
the manuals.  The Radio Shack drives CAN run at 6ms.  They are also
capable of 40 tracks, although I have read in a previous article that
35 tracks is hard-wired into the driver.  I have not verified this myself.
