The Alspa has a parallel port on it that goes to a
Corvus drive. If I find
my diskettes, or can get a boot disk with bios source, you can use that code
to run the drive. I don't know of any real documentation, maybe Al K has
some that is not online somewhere that describes how the actual disk runs
over that cable.
That would be terrific - thanks! BTW, are you the same Jim Stephens I've
talked to before about Corvus drives? I have a vague recollection of a
discussion about a Mirror card for a flat-cable drive. I've been looking
for one of these with no success for > 10 years.
