-I recently acquired a DataFrame XP330, and through some finesse managed to
-partition it with HD Setup. It has a MacOS partition that works flawlessly.
-I created two A/UX partitions (along with the eschatology and other misc)
-and went to mkfs them. When I do this I get the following:
-/dev/dsk/c4d0s0 device write error: ... sector info ... Timeout.

Call SuperMac and get the upgraded ROM for the XP330 controller board.  The
original ROM didn't handle disconnect/reselect correctly.
