Is there a working terminator on the second

There *should* be... this is the second terminator I've tried and it

I'm using...
Looks like it. If you've tried two terminators and two controllers,
all that's left is the cable or the drive. I assume you've got the
ribbon cable from the controller to the bulkhead connector round the
right way.
Hmm, right that's one thing I'm not too sure about... the cable is just
straight-thru, right? I'm using a makeshift cable (one of a couple that I've
tried), and it's straight-thru, because I was assuming the 'real' cable is as
well. Sometime today I'll try to look to see if there's anything too obvious
that's wrong (eg missing 4MHz clock signal).
