Hmm.  The trouble seems to be that whenever the drive accesses an HD disk 
it takes a second to recognize it; under NetBSD it never gets past that 
stage.  Does the A4000 internal drive go halfspeed with HD disks like this 
one does?

Also, I enabled the external drive merely by adding the line:
fd1 at fdc0 unit 1
to the std.amiga file in src/sys/arch/amiga/conf and remaking the 
kernal.  Are there any other params I need to include to make the kernal 
recognize it as an HD drive?
