Actually, I want to do something similar to
Ethan's old boss, except
that I plan to add a hard disk by using a Dilog DI-602 card. It
attaches to a standard MFM disk and emulates a RL02 controller and, best
of all, it's only a double module. It'll fit the backplane easily.
I have something similar, a DQ-614 I pulled from a DataRAM Qbus box.
The only problem is that the boot ROMs, which are on
the WH-27 card,
don't know how to boot a RL02. Any ideas?
What my boss did was to pull the floppy controller and use a BDV-11
bootstrap/terminator. It has the DL boot on it.
