Now it seems that all I can get now is the new 1542C. What I would like to know is (i) does 386BSD support this? (ii) is it compatible in any mode with the 1542B (such that 1542B drivers will work with it)? Please reply by E-Mail since we don't get a newsfeed here :-( I will summarise to individuals/the net.
