Linards,
I believe that BASICS disc which it is called "DOS 3.3 BASICS". Is it
what you want? It will load 13-sector ROM into memory from 0 sector track 0
disc. Then, you can enter RETURN key to boot DOS 3.2.1+ Master System disc.
It is not BOOT13 from DOS 3.3 Master System disc. I have one copy. If you
want, I will be glad to e-mail you a copy image. I will have to use
DSK2File to convert from real disc to DSK image.
