I have a new 40Mbyte Supra hard disk drive for my Atari ST 1040.
The machine is a few years old with TOS in ROM.
MINIX ST 1.1 doesn't recognize the drive.  I've tried several
approaches includeing running MINIX from GEMDOS with MINIX.PRG
and MINIX.IMG generated from the boot disk.

I would guess I need a different hard disk device driver
but I've no idea how I will do that.

Please mail me if you've got this combination to work
or if you are reasonable sure how to do it.
