Hi.. I hope I am not becoming a pain with my various questions.. Since I
asked for opinions on my 2.2.3 install problems, I have also decided to
upgrade to a 20mhz 386 clone. Since I'd like to interchange hardware between the
286 and 386, I decided to go for a 3085 71 meg Miniscribe with a WD1006.
Does anybody know of any existing problems with 286 or 386 Xenix/Unix and the
>1024 Cyl of the 3085, previous postings on the subject seemed to be concerned
with ESDI and not MFM.
Having been bitten recently I would very much appreciate any reports on the
subject. Thanks in advance..
Toby

I had no problems, providing you used the supplied disk to do a low-level format, you just tell SCO Xenix about the number of cylinders and away it goes... Keith -- Keith Brazington Cix 01 399 5252.
