I'd like to replace a 20 mb disk in a Redstone RIP that drives a
linotype L100. The present setup uses a dtc sasi > st506 controller,
meaning I should be able to use an 85 mb pc-style disk.
 The problem is how to set up the values for setdiskdriveparams.
I need twenty digits representing 10 hex codes for god knows what:

<00000000000000000000> setdiskdriveparams
0 1 initializedisk
...etc.

Can anybody out there help?
