I have an integrated (built-into-my-motherboard) WD MFM controller, and I'd
like to be able to add an RLL controller. I'm pretty sure DOS couldn't
use the second controller, but Xenix should. Any recommendations on which
RLL controller can be made secondary easily?

The Adaptec 2372B works fine as a secondary controller and has the jumpers built on the card.

I believe you have to do a hardware hack for the interrupts, though. -- bill davidsen - sysop *IX BBS and Public Access UNIX davidsen@sixhub.uucp ...!uunet!crdgw1!sixhub!davidsen "Getting old is bad, but it beats the hell out of the alternative" -anon
