In article <HUOPIO.90Jan9224649@kannel.lut.fi> you write:
>Mu friend bought a BEAR 386 with a Mitsinbishi MR535-U00 drive and

I don't think so. I have the same drive and the CMOS BIOS reports that I have
it defined as having 977 cylinders, 5 heads, Precomp 300, Landing zone 978 and
17 sectors per track. I did not low level format the drive myself. It was 
done by the technician where I bought it. I also have the same controller as
your friend. I'm running my controller/drive in a 12MHz '286. I am also using
RLL 1:1 as is your friend. Hope this helps.

Cheers!
