I am not sure that this message found its way outside INRIA, so I repost it:





 Hi netlanders!
 
 I have a (very old) Bull Micral BM 30 (XT-compatible), with a dying 10M hard
 disk . I also got an ST225...
 Unfortunately, the HD has a rather strange controller, made of two boards:
 	-a combined SCSI-serial-floppy board (marked Bull-Micral)
 	-a SCSI-ST506 converter, marked Xebec
 The HD itself is a Microscience (ST506, 10M)
 
 Does somebody know how I can replace this HD? How may I ll-format it?
 (as you imagine, I lost the original disks, which were supposed to contain
 an HDFORMAT.EXE...)
