[comp.os.minix] Looking for IDE harddrive recommendations

feustel@netcom.COM (David Feustel) (06/11/91)

Minix works fine with a Conner 200 meg IDE drive coexisting with
OS2/DOS partitions.

I've just bought Minix, and a 386 machine without a harddrive.
I'm looking for a harddrive >100MB with an IDE interface, and would
really like it to run with Minix without too many of the horror
stories I've been reading here recently regarding IDE + minix!

If anyone uses Minix with either the Seagate ST1144A or Maxtor 7120A
(both 130MB drives) I'd really appreciate hearing from them, or anyone
else with alternative suggestions.

Thanks in advance,
Ian (idb@eng.cam.ac.uk)
