I still need full jumpers info set to set up the Micropolis properly
and I have to ask my friend to burn new set of EPROM's for the
ultrastor 12F-24 (old is 009 version, the latest is 11 and 12)

Problems:

I can LLF and map defects, save them and verify whole thing but
fdisk seems to destory the data and the configuration data seems
not to kept on the drive itself deposited by controller. True on the
1518 (1.3GB) but I have no problems on 1538 (.9GB).

I think it's the EPROM 009 version is the problem?

Any ideas?
