Folks:
The IDE controller I bought (a SIIG model CN2419) somehow seems to not
want to play nice with my old 486 and won't let me boot NetBSD.. So I'm
looking for a different controller to throw in the machine. Since the
MB BIOS is older than dirt (1991) I imagine it needs to have a BIOS.
Since I've got a 1.6Gig drive, I imagine it would also be good if the
controller did LBA...
Any suggestions??
advTHANKSance,
