If you can get the two disk controllers working, then it will work just
fine.  Make sure that the Minix HD is either disk 0 and/or disk 1.
MS-DOS will ignore any disk/partition that is not of MS-DOS type.  Just
make your ST-225 with Minix-only partitions.

If you can get two disk controller cards working in one machine, please
post here how you did it.  I'm sure that others would like to know.
