Did Lou ever publish somewhere his notes on patching ZRQCH0?
Back from around almost 10 years ago:
https://forum.vcfed.org/index.php?threads/patching-zrqch0-to-use-any-geometry-mfm-hard-disk-on-rqdx3.39318/
Is Lou still around? Looks like he hasn't posted on VCFed in a few years.

Oh yeah, that reminds me, I have a Sun 4/110. Never really thought
much about it being a VME system, such as a Motorola MVME system. I
can't say I use the Sun 4/110 at least occasionally. I don't remember
