Currently, the “wd” driver supports bad144 (because ST506 and the like), as well as the Xylogics SMD drivers (“xd” and “xy”). Like I said, there’s been some cargo-culting of the consumption of the table in disk drivers where it would have never served any real purpose. I don’t suppose there are a lot of people using Fujitsu Super Eagles with their Sun3/260s these days, but I have no reason to doubt that the drivers for those controllers still work. (Maybe one day I’ll add emulation of them to TME.) -- thorpej
