Message-ID: <488@spdcc.UUCP> Date: Fri, 9-Jan-87 00:57:44 EST Article-I.D.: spdcc.488 Posted: Fri Jan 9 00:57:44 1987 Date-Received: Fri, 9-Jan-87 23:48:52 EST Organization: S.P. Dyer Computer Consulting, Cambridge MA Lines: 10 Keywords: RTs do it, why not ATs? Xref: mnetor comp.unix.xenix:46 comp.sys.ibm.pc:874 I note that the RT PC can use two PC/AT hard/floppy disk controllers provided their jumper settings are different. Is there any reason why the AT (particularly running XENIX) shouldn't be able to also take advantage of this? I'd love to have an external hard drive or two hanging off my machine since I'm always tight on space, and really large drives of 140mb or so are still too expensive. Are there problems with allocating interrupts on the AT? -- Steve Dyer dyer@harvard.HARVARD.EDU {linus,wanginst,bbnccv,harvard,ima,ihnp4}!spdcc!dyer
