Hans, when you say 'busconnector' what exactly are you talking about? Is this a full hard drive interface card, or just the bare card edge?
It is the card connector from a ruined Memory board.
I have removed the passthrough connections for BAKIN and BAKOUT and IEIN and IEOUT signals.
Now, if you want to use it with LS-DOS for testing rather than TRSDOS or Xenix, you might be able to forgo the interrupt logic completely, and the exact same driver for the LO-Tech as used for the Model 4 should work unmodified, since the LS-DOS WD driver doesn't use the WD1010's interrupt facility.
That's exact what I want do to get started.
It sure would be nice if those long-lost schematics for the hard disk interface were to show up. Barring that, look closely at the schematic for the integrated hard disk interface/controller that was previously posted, and see how the WD1010 subsystem is interfaced to the card edge
Can you help me to find this scematic where the WD1010 subsystem is interfaced to the card edge.
