I don't believe we have a driver for that particular controller in the 
NitrOS-9 repository.  I seem to recall we have the booter though 
(boot_wd1002).  I believe a driver for the eliminator card wouldn't be 
difficult to do, but I doubt there are too many of them floating around 
these days.

What exactly was the eliminator anyway?   And speaking of the 
boot_wd1002, I recently picked up a brand new WD-1002A-27X ISA card 
with a virtually new Seagate ST-238R hard drive.  It was a pull from a 
very lightly used Commodore PC.  Would the eliminator somehow interface 
with this card?  Doesn't the Burke & Burke interface also interface 
with this card?
