Which version of the emulator are you using? Coco2 or Coco3? Are you trying to boot a double sided image? Let us know, and we'll try to help.

Yes...I'm using OS/9 Level 1 (I know...but it's all I have). What happens is when I use Jeff's RETRIEVE program, the first sector is ALWAYS unreadable. Every sector after that reads fine. I'm of the opinion that the format for Level 1 is different than level 2 as I have heard that many have used OS/9 l2 on the emulator with nothing but success. What do you think?

What do you think? << Ok, some of this will sound goofy, but try 'em anyway. Take a write protect label and use it to cover the index hole in the diskette jacket. The PC generates a HW interrupt whenever it see the index hole, but the interrupt is only used during formatting, not reading / writing. Also, when RETRIEVE gives you the "Abort, Retry, Ignore, Continue" message, slowly open and close the drive door while pressing Retry. I know it sounds silly, but try it.
