I am trying to install an older Seagate 40Mb hard disk in an NCR 386sx
using an 8-bit XT hard disk controller, anybody have a clue why it dosen't
work?

(I cant RTFM, the card and disk don't have any)

I think it might have something to do with low level formatting the disk,
as the computer on boot up gives and error and address c800, i guess
the location of the hard disk controller, and I have forgotten how to
start a low level format using debug.
