If an entry doesn't need to be changed to add your disk drive, don't change it. Some of them MAY be worth tinkering with, but it helps if you know what they're for. And, of course, only make minimum changes between tests. Whether your drive is physically connected or not will probably make no difference whatsoever to your use of the rest of the machine. Question: If you use ddsysgen (I have one of those, too, but it's nothing like yours) without making any changes, is the result useable? I presume you don't have the source for your BIOS: my sympathies. If you decide to disassemble it, I recommend RESOURCE, ZESOURCE, or DASM, and you'll need to read the instructions :-).
