I too have run into this problem, but with a 1.44 mb drive.  I got a controller
that tells me that I have a 1.44 mb drive, but whenever I tried to use it in
that mode, I'd get errors on BOTH the 1.44 mb drive and the 360 k drive.
I ended up using the drive as a 720k drive, with no problems.  If anyone has any
ideas how to make a regular xt, (not an xt 286) use a 1.44 mb drive, let me know
also.
