Hi,
	I am considering buying a hard disk for my ST and want to use it
with MINIX (which I already own and have running on floppies). My probable
purchase will be the 32Mb drive from Third Coast Systems (UK) which uses a
Berkeley Micro Systems (BMS) controller board.

	What I want to know is - will this work ok ?

	Or, will I have to modify the device driver to get it working and
if so , can someone send me the diffs ?
