I have an Adaptec ACB-4000A scsi/mfm adapter that I would like to
use with an AHA-1542B. It is necessary to do a mode select command
with the drive's paramaters before formatting the drive. Scsicntl
cannot be used for this, as the ACB-4000A does not seem to support
the inquiry command. Does anyone know of software similar to scsicntl
that can be used with a ACB-4000A to do the mode select?
