Adaptec 1522A controller under x86 2.1 ?
> Couldn't find the x86 FAQ anywhere (even rtfm)...
Located on sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/sun-info/solaris-x86 .
> Anyway, will an Adaptec 1522A work to boot Solaris x86 2.1 ?
Nope. Tech support indicates Solaris will never support a card
as cheap as this ($80). Have to go with the $200 1542C .

Being a Sony, it will probably work; the blocksize must be set
to 2048, so I'm told.
> Would 2.4 ? And is it really coming out by Spring 1994 ?
Not bloody likely. I am very curious how SunSoft expects a migration
to their product if they refuse to support common (and cheap) products.
If Linux supports Mitsumi drives, why not a large company ?
