   I am presently renovating my dormitory's computer lab, and I have a
few questions on the delightfully non-standard AT&T 6300.

1) How would I wire a standard XT/AT 5 pin DIN-type keyboard to 
   AT&T's keyboard connector?  A list of the appropriate pin connections
   would be great.

2) Do regular XT/AT cards work okay in the 6300 (no video, just an
   extra serial card, perhaps?)
 
3) How would I perform a low-level format on the 6300's hard drive?
   (If I simply use the generic call from debug, please refresh my
    memory; I forgot the address...)

Thanks,
Mark
