I would like to possibly do this in unix.  I have an adaptec mfm-scsi bridge
card but need the software (that will run on unix system V, or even messy-dos)
to properly label and set up (i.e., format, among other things) a miniscribe
6085 drive to look like a scsi so the bridge will work properly.

Does anyone know of such a beast and would they be willing to send me a copy?
(Although email me first so i don't get 100 copies)
