I bet it definitely works (boot on XT drive) if one disables the onboard
IDE first.
The problem I see is using IDE and MFM/RLL drives at the same time,
which might prove difficult.
To boot XT drives on an AT+, one usually has to disable the IDE drives
so that the BIOS doesn't go looking there.
Hi all!
I've got a 808[68] maschine with a 40 MB harddisk with MS-DOS 3.3

I want to use this maschine with ELKS in future so I decided to make a
backup of the disk first. Can I just move the whole disk with it's
adapter card to my Pentium? I noticed that there is a xt disk driver

Is this neccessary, and if, how do I do this with linux and/or
ELKS?
