When he attempts to boot he gets a trap 0. This controller-disk combination works perfectly using RST/S but somehow system 5 seems to have problems. He has ordered 2.9bsd (should he wait for that?). A Bell software engineer suggested that the bsd driver might work where the system 5 driver doesn't because the Berkeley drivers are more loosely written (more forgiving?). Anyway, the abovementioned friend does not have a source license for system 5 and is unable to look at the driver and check against the way his controller is emulating the rm05. Any help, leads etc. would be very much appreciated -- marc gates umcp-cs!aplvax!marc
