Note: Though DS performs extensive error checking on itself and its
installation, one particular conflict should be noted: the
Western Digital RLL controller model WD1002A-27X ("A" version
only) has the untidy habit of writing 17 bytes to the Master
Boot Record (reported with 30 MB disks only) sometimes. Since
this does not occur on installation, this proceeds normally
however, if the write should occur, DS will flag this change.
In this case, use of the recovery disk (or a phone call) will be
necessary to recover. If the procedure outlines in the README.DS
file is followed, there will be no problem.
As far as is known, this controller was only used on older XT
class machines.
WD has been notified but as yet, no response has been forthcoming.
