The current P112 is a reissue from years ago, right? I remember I
had one ?
and I may still have it somewhere ? but I only used it with 3.5?
drives. Somehow I think it was built that way by design (the board outline
fit on a drive).
I don?t know how available the code is, but I
would look at the firmware
on the board. To me it sounds like it has a bad drive
definition. The 8272
is pretty easy to program for (I use it on my IMSAI).
As an aside, I use a modified YD-380 (5.25? HD)
drive to replace the 8?
drives on my IMSAI so as a quick test you could use one of
those. At least
it can step to 80 tracks and has the same speed and bit rate. I have
instructions on my site how to use it.

I have a archive and a board which I bought with the TCP option, as well
as CF adapter, etc.
I can share it if it's not available online
Here is the contents I have.

Today at our workshop meeting we got one of these up and running. We have
worshops in Kennett Square monthly if you're in the Philadelphia area. I
can put you in touch with the owner off line if you'd like.
