- I recently acquired an old IBM RT-6051 tower which has number of
- cards using the AT-bus configuration. I own a 386-DX and was wondering
- which of these cards would be usable with my 386, particularly the
- Extended ESDI drive interface, the Token Ring Adapter, the Ethernet
- adapter, and the video card. I have managed to get the ESDI card's
- floppy drive controller to work in my 386, but the part I want to use,
- the hard drives, would not be recognized. Does anyone out there know
- why this might be and also what "type" drive the full-heights that came
- with the RT would be considered by an AT bios
- I would appreciate your help and information.
- Responses could be posted or mailed.
