A few years back I installed on a IBM PS/2 386. It had a MCA bus. I
would imagine the PS/1 does also. I don't know off the top of my head
if debian supports MCA. When I installed (I think it was mutt) I had to
get special boot disks. I found them with a web search. I know there
isn't anything definitive in what I've said here but maybe it will give
you a start. Does the bios recognize the drive?
