HELP!!!!

	A few months ago, someone posted some info on how to set the
	seek rate for add-on floppy drives (e.g. I have a 5.25 360K
	Teac, which wants 6msec, not the default 3msec).  I've tried
	setting the seekrate  OS variable with no success (seems this
	is a Catch-22 variable - you have to set it before initializing
	the floppies via flopini, but you can't because flopini is
	called during boot - good design ;-().  Any info on the
	un-documented (but usable) locations to set for drive b: would
	be greatly appreciated.
