I have a non-standard (Priam ID60-AT) disk drive for a 6 MHz 
IBM PC/AT.  I have patched IBM Xenix 1.0 to run with the drive.
I would like to get IBM Xenix 2.0 to work.  /xenix does not
have the table "diskinfo" in its data section.  I have not
found an equivalent table.

Could someone please tell me the best way to get Xenix 2.0 to
believe that my drive has 981 cylinders (the ROM BIOS has 855
for type 12)?  Patches, if necessary, for the boot programs
would also be appreciated.
