I tried setting up my A2286 AT Bridgeboard last night, and realized that I
somehow managed to lose the cable that connects the Bridgeboard with the 5.25"
disk drive.  I managed to find a cable and the appropriate connectors, but
when I connected it together, the Bridgeboard wouldn't boot.  According to 
the manual, the AT cable is supposed to have a few of the wires twisted, which
(hopefully) explains the problem.  Could someone please tell me which wires
get twisted so I can fix my cable?

Thanks,
-brett
