No, it's an RRD43-A :-)

You know, I reported this bug about 1 and a half year ago. I announced here to
give anyone who wants to work on this bug the opportunety for console access
to a Jensen, but noone wanted to fix it. I'm not that good in driver hacking
and so I can't do it.
But I have to say I don't know whether this is fixed in 1.6 or not...

So again for the dear developers: I offer console access to anyone who is willing
to fix this bug - no problem.

VMS works, I have it running, so does Tru64 <= 5.0.

Read the archives - I already had this problem with 1.4.
(removing the floppy drive doesn't help either, BTW)
