I recently acquired an 11/730 with the standard pair of RL02s (hey it was
free, and working).  After having moved the little beastie a block, the
drives fault on powerup.  Anyone have any ideas what might be causing this?

One suspect is the drive access arm; back when I used to hack pdp-11s with
rk06s, we used to have the same problem.

Also, anyone know where I can get the diagnostic / microcode tapes for
an 11/730?
