I have now succeeded in installing MINIX 1.5 on my Seagate ST-251-1
in a 386SX system.  The AT boot disk easily mounts filesystems from
that MFM controller. UNTIL...

I have a second hard disk controller.  It is an an Adaptec AHA-1542B
SCSI controller.  When I have it installed in my system, MINIX hangs 
when it tries to access the MFM controller.  When I boot universal
MINIX, I have no problem.  But of course this goes through BIOS and that
is ugly.

Can anyone give me any clues or answers?
