Summary MESS-specific 05037: Request for change in mess/drivers/coco12.c
Description Looks like there is no longer a category for an improvement/request, which this is.

The Coco (without Extended Basic) apparently can't use a disk ROM. That is certainly how MESS behaves. Therefore it does not make any sense for coco emulation to show .vhd drives, as they can't be used.
This inconsistency can be corrected by modifying mess/drivers/coco12.c as follows:

1) In static MACHINE_CONFIG_START( coco, coco12_state ) REMOVE the entries
MCFG_COCO_VHD_ADD(VHD0_TAG)
MCFG_COCO_VHD_ADD(VHD1_TAG)
2) ADD to static MACHINE_CONFIG_DERIVED( cocoe, coco ) the entries
MCFG_COCO_VHD_ADD(VHD0_TAG)
MCFG_COCO_VHD_ADD(VHD1_TAG)
3) ADD to static MACHINE_CONFIG_DERIVED( coco2, coco ) the entries
MCFG_COCO_VHD_ADD(VHD0_TAG)
MCFG_COCO_VHD_ADD(VHD1_TAG)

For change/feature requests or improvements, you select the category that it falls under, with the severity "Feature." However, I'm not sure what to file this under, so I left it as "Misc."
