I've used systems with both Phoenix and Award BIOS, and both are good.
The Phoenix BIOS on my 386 system has two user-definable drive types, which
came in handy when I upgraded to ESDI...just enter the parameters and you're
set.

I've never used it, but I've heard stories of compatibility problems with
DTK's BIOS.
