I could use some Xenix installation advice...

When installing Xenix, the hdinit program gives this error:
Error on Fixed Disk (minor 0), blkno = 0, cmd = 0001 status = 0041
Sector =0, Cylinder/head = 0/0

I WAS running Xenix-86 on a PC6300 with a Seagate ST225 20MB hard disk,
and a Western Digital 1002 controller, worked fine.

I got a new 386 machine, and put the 20MB drive on it, and am NOW trying
to run it with a Western Digital 1003 (WA2) controller. Any ideas?
Do I have to get a later version of Xenix to be compatible with the
controller?
