Yes, I’ll try hardware combos. This is basically an attempt to get a PCI ATA
card working end to end, from Openboot to OS, without touching the original
IDE. I have this card working with openbsd and the Openboot instructions I
posted a few years back but I could not get the drives seen by Debian 9
installer, was hoping to get further this time, which I have. I’ll post back if
I have more details.
Thanks for the help.
