Two short (hopefully) easy questions:

1)  Does anybody have Mach running on a 486 machine?  Are there any
known incompatibilities or should it work on most AT bus 486 machines,
as long as the other published system specifications are met?

2)  Can anyone give me the correct jumpering for a WD1007 ESDI
board to make it work right with Mach?  Should it be in translated
mode (where it remaps the cylinder, head, and sector addresses
to get the number of cylinders below 1024) or untranslated mode?

Thanks in advance for any help on this.
