really glad I followed the advice to copy my old (GENERIC) kernel

Ah, glad to hear that the advice came in handy. The other thing
that comes in useful is a bootable Zip disk (complete 2BSD system
fits on a Zip disk if one has a SCSI adaptor around) - came in handy
when I corrupted/broke 'init' ...
I should track down the half-bezel so that I can mount this SCSI Zip drive I
have in my BA123. That would look so weird...
On another note, were there any SCSI adapters that made use of the BA23/
BA123 RD disk control buttons? Would be nifty to swap in a new ra0 by
simply taking a disk offline/online.
