I'm confused (sorry). Are you trying to build a
PCI board with a Pertec
interface?
Yes, basically--and one that will handle arbitrarily long records (i.e.
much greater than 64K). I've built an ISA Pertec adapter that will do
this, but it's too slow to keep up with a faster drive. I've also built a
PCI version of a sort that uses a PCI card with 2 82C55's on it, but again,
it's not quite fast enough.
I was under the impression that the qbus cards had the 64K record size
limitation.
