I have had os9 ver: 2.00.00 for a couple of weeks now.  The new version
of SDisk is also available from D.P. Johnson and is it slick!  It allows
you to boot up the system at 6ms step rate, it automatically configures
a disk device descriptor to read a 35 or 40 track disk even in an 80 track
drive by double stepping.  There is a command to dynamically change a 
device descriptor to coco format or standard format or any of several other
formats.  It is fantasmablastic!
