[comp.os.cpm] Kaypro HardDrives

You successfully jammed a hard drive in a Kaypro 2?  How long did it 
take you?  Did you just go trial and error until it flew, or did you 
get a hold of some material on the subject?  

I ask because I've been messing with it for a while now, with minimum 
results ... the pair of 2's I own came with nothing more than the 
really lame "Meet Your Kaypro" docs that they gave to business jerks 
so they'd know which way was up for the floppy ... no schematics or 
tech material in sight ... I'd just buy a 10, but people want the moon 
for them around here ... $600.00 minimum ...

Any info that you could point me to would be vastly appreciated ...
