This is not a stupid question; I am stupid for acting before getting an
answer to it.

Will a Seagate 4096 80 Mbyte hard drive with a Western Digital WD1003
MFM controller work on an AT system?  Can you use the high end of the
disk (above 65k)?  Can you use both DOS and Minix partitions; and can
minix recognize it's own partition when mounting the hard disk?
