Andromeda disk controller diag/format disk found

[Chris Zach]

Agreed. I might have one of those controllers in my pile, information on 
them is now exceptionally rare, and without things like those disks one 
is sunk.

Also have an MTI ESDI Q Bus controller in my 11/73. It has its' own 
serial port that allows you to configure if you know the "HELLO" 
password, which is "MTI" (all caps). Without that bit of info it's 
useless....
