Does anyone out there know which hard drive controllers  will  be
compatible  with  the  Commodore  version of Unix?  My reason for
asking is that I'm a poor student looking for an inexpensive hard
drive  controller,  but  down the road I'd like to be able to run
Unix on the same machine with an accelerator board.  I know  that
the  A2091  will  be  compatible, but I'm looking for something a
little cheaper.  Also, does anybody know what Unix  will  require
to  run?   Is  just a 68020 and a MMU enough?  Will it run on any
68030 board or just Commodore's?  Failing this, is there any plan
for a trade in type deal (ie a 2000 + cash = 3000)?  Please reply
by mail, since our newsfeed is very flakey.
