I'm thinking that I am going to pull the custom
cards as soon as I get enough stuff to
get it to boot without them, since I REALLY want to run BSD211 on the thing. I'll
need a bigger hard drive also (any one got a couple of RD-54s and controllers to
donate?)
Do yourself a favor, don't mess with MFM disks if you can help it. The
cheapest solution is to get a ESDI controller and dig up some ESDI drives,
this should be far cheaper than getting even one RD54. In fact if you get
lucky, a SCSI controller is likely to be cheaper. Either solution will
generate less grey hair than trying to use an MFM drive.
