I know SOMEONE on the INTERNET who is about THREE SECONDS from LANDING in my
KILLFILE.

David, give the hard drive thing a rest. Nobody on this list is interested,
people are focusing on getting BSD to run on readily available components
from Sega. If you're on a hard drive mission, then go ahead and crusade all
you want. But please stop bugging the people on this list.

It would be much more intelligent to talk to people who 1) have an interest
in getting a hard drive working on the Dreamcast and 2) are willing to
rewire the entire machine in order to do so.
