SCO tells my that their ESDI version of Xenix
needs an OMTI ESDI card that differs from the WD-1007ESDI cards.
It allows the system to work with a 1:1 interleave, rather than
a 1:3, which would be the case using an St-506 looking ESDI card.
I want to use the 1:1 ESDI system, but I can't find a source for
the OMTI card ANYWHERE!
The system will be an AST 386 w/ a 150MB micropolis ESDI drive.
SCO says that it needs the OMTI 8620 or 8627 (what's the difference?)
If I use this card, how does the system boot if it doesn't look like
an ST-506 card? How does dos run? I would *hae* to think about
booting SCO from floppy every time I re-boot!
Thanks! Please e-mail responses!
