By the way, we're also interested in other versions of this firmware
for analysis. The chip is difficult to read out (we had to use the
BPDos software with a BP-1200 EPROM programmer since the Windows
software would only produce inconsistent dumps). Apparently Jameco has
this chip available, but I've heard mixed reports as to their
reliability.

How much technical information is out there for these
Kodak drives? I
just picked up a couple to modify for reading difficult (and
nonstandard TPI) drives. I found the QNX driver for these, but have a
hard time finding any more... They sure are interesting. I took scans
and read out the 6805's ROM contents and stuck them up on
http://dec8.info/pictures/Kodak%203.3Mb%205.25%20drive/ in case anyone
is interested.
