1230 | 52 - The MD descriptor has been added to the LEVEL2/MODULES/RBF directory. |
1223 | 53 - A compatibility issue with os9gen's -t option and OS-9 Level One |

1220 | 57 - The asm program now supports 6309 bitfield instructions. |
58 - The prompt command has been added to the standard command set. | |
1214 | 59 - os9gen now supports the -t= option which allows one to specify an |
60 alternate boot track file. | |

62 The former contains bootlist files for building boot disks, while | |
63 the latter contains scripts to build boot disks. | |
64 - There are now two booters for booting from a WD1773 based | |
65 floppy controller: boot_1773_6ms and boot_1773_30ms for | |

78 IDE-LBA have been added. | |
79 - The BOOTLISTS/ directory has been added on the Modules disk, and | |
80 contains bootlist files for various configurations. | |
1167 | 81 - The cputype command has been optimized for size. |
82 - Slight performance modifications were made to RBF and SCF. | |

1152 | 87 - SYS/helpmsg expanded to include new commands. |
1112 | 88 - ident now correctly reports modules with a language byte of Obj6309. |
1152 | 89 - rbf.mn has been back-ported from NitrOS-9 in order to unify the code base |
90 and bring non-6309 specific features to OS-9 Level Two. | |
1102 | 91 - A bug in IOMan which affected any driver wanting to access the port |
1152 | 92 address of its hardware via its path descriptor has been fixed. |

100 - New common version among all releases of OS-9 for the CoCo |
998 | 101 - Many commands have been updated and optimized: |
102 o For size reasons, command help information is no longer embedded in the | |
103 utilites, but is instead available through the helpmsg file in /DD/SYS | |
104 o date, dir, mdir, procs and verify now require a dash (-) before options | |
105 o format now has a cluster option and now shows the correct number of | |
106 good sectors on large sector devices | |
107 o Numerous commands have been optimized for size | |
108 o cmp, error, help and touch have been rewritten in assembly for size | |
109 o copy has been enhanced to include OS-9/68K-like features | |
110 - VDGInt has been back-ported to OS-9 Level Two from NitrOS-9. The | |
111 vdgint.io module contains both CoCo 1/2 AND CoCo 3 graphics code. | |
112 The vdgint_small.io module only contains CoCo 3 graphics code. | |
113 - CC3Go has been moved back into the root directory from the CMDS directory. | |
114 This keeps ROM-based users and those who want cc3go in their bootfile from | |
115 having to change the init module, which referenced CMDS/cc3go. | |
116 - CC3Go once again references /H0 and /H0/CMDS as paths that it tries to | |
117 chd/chx to upon startup. This allows for those with floppy boots who | |
118 want to point /DD at their floppy to continue to do so. Also, if the | |
119 forking of 'shell startup' fails due to lack of a shell file, then | |
120 CC3Go will now try to fork AutoEx instead of jumping to the crash routine. | |
121 - Several bugs that crept into IOMan during the last release have been fixed. | |
122 | |
1136 | 123 OS-9 Level Two V02.01.00 Beta2: |
485 | 124 - Defs files now have properly terminated lines and 'pag' is now emitted |
125 as a comment. | |
739 | 126 - SCF, Rammer and PipeMan are now made from the NitrOS-9 version source base, |
127 bringing in new improvements and features from that platform. | |
128 - Clock and Clock2 are now unifed once again and are built from the same source | |
129 base as the clocks from NitrOS-9. | |
998 | 130 - The printer driver is now for the CoCo 3 serial port. In the previous |
131 release, it was mistakenly made for the Disto parallel port. | |
592 | 132 - ASM now assembles 6309 op-codes. |
623 | 133 - Window descriptors now have proper initialization count. |
739 | 134 - The debug program is now part of the CMDS package. |
135 - With the inclusion of NitrOS-9's SCF, a bug which crashed the system when | |
136 typing CTRL-E or CTRL-C while using shellplus has been fixed. |
