I need this to write a device driver for 386BSD UNIX. I have asked the countries' Panasonic people and they don't have the info (they will have to ask Japan). The drive is connected by a small card that comes with it (LMEP0084B or equiv [Matsushit part #]) and will have the same programming interface as the Sound Galaxy card, as they provide the DOS Sound Galaxy driver with it (and it works!). If you have any information that will help me, or pointers where to look, please send me some mail, etc. Thanks, Greg (greg@coombs.anu.edu.au)
