- I guessed right. However there is another problem: Now the disk is working
- but I keep getting "DMA interrupt discarded" warnings whenever the 2nd disk
- is accessed. This is ST Minix 1.5.10.4 with OLDSUPRA defined so that the
- driver interacts correctly with the early type Supra hostadaptor. I could just
- remove the warning text, but would prefer to mend the winchester driver so that
- it does not suffer from spurious DMA interrupts. Has anyone already done this?
- Suggestions about why this is happening, and only on the 3rd (actually 2nd)
- disk??
