What I did was get a Rapide interface and new HD put my RiscOS stuff on that
and then partitioned the original internal drive for RiscBSD (leaving a snall
RiscOS partition for use in emergenccies) that way I didn't have to worry 
about drivers for the Rapide interface and got improved performance from 
RiscOS.  Now that there are drivers for the Rapide  I will probably get another
drive (anyone selling them cheap at AW?) and  use the original disc as a 
backup.  One thought I had was getting a SyJet and using a disc for RiscBSD,
has anyone got anything like this woeking yet?

Spike.
