The patch I know about is for 2.9BSD so you can stuff it onto a Pro350.
2.9BSD does not come with MSCP support, but _does_ work on the KDF11.
I know that 2.11BSD supports MSCP but do not know if it natively supports
the Pro disk controller.

Worst case, if it isn't supported out of the box, you'd have to port
the Pro disk controller driver from 2.9BSD to 2.11BSD.

Are disks formatted on a Pro compatible with the RQDX3? I ask because
I'd probably want to format an ST251 as an RD33 in an RQDX3, load
stuff on a Qbus box, then move the disk to the Pro.
