For OS2 1.1, you need the Exabyte technical reference (whatever that is), plus
the "ASW-1420/AT" software from Adaptec, plus the "Adaptec Advanced SCSI Program
Interface Specification for OS2".  The software costs $50, I think; I don't
know what the manuals cost.  Note that Adaptec has the drivers for OS2 1.3,
but hasn't released them, yet....
