MediaWiki:Sitenotice:
2025-12-29: I have restored the wiki to a backup from the end of November. Starting in September 2025, accesses went form the 800MB-1.2GB range per month to 26GB in September, 42GB in October, and 70GB in November with most accesses originating from China. As soon as I realized what was causing all the access problems in November, I shut it down (it had reached 36GB by then) behind a password/login screen. The database had gotten corrupted, and I tried a restore from just before the spike in access but that didn't work. Thus, end of November. I still have the other daily backups so if there were any important additions in December, let me know and maybe they can be recovered. - Allen H.

Using HDB-DOS or DW-DOS with ADOS
When using the Cassette .WAV files to load HDB-DOS or DW-DOS with an ADOS EPROM in your Disk Controller, you must issue the "DISABLE" command before loading the .WAV file. This returns the CoCo to a state where the extra ADOS features are disabled and you can then use the .WAV files as if you were running a stock Disk Extended BASIC system.
