At the company I work for I was elected to try and find a larger disk
drive for the AT. Our AT's don't run Xenix but Venix. However I think you
will find the Information useful.  If the drive you are considering is
one of the drives that the IBM AT controller supports than it will probably
work with Xenix.  To check this out or to find out what other drivers you
can use call Xenix technical suport or possibley IBM tech support.
