What's the actual drive?  Can I hang a normal PC type FDD off here?
I'm getting sick of trying/retrying/inevitably failing with RD disks...
I've tried 4, and all 4 have failed...  I got a RD33 to work from the ROM
standpoint, but when NetBSD boots, it can't write to the drive for nothing.
I get all sorts of errors that look like bad sectors, even though I
formatted it on the 2K fine...
I have a couple more drives to try...
Is there any special mod required (BEsides a new format) to get ex-PC drives to
work in uVAXen?
