I had my board fitted by a local store for a fiver but by the looks of
things the GND is almost certainly the long track that goes around the
outside of the board, I think it does say ground on it somewhere. The
5V (I think) was actually taken from the floppy drive port, I'm not
too sure but I've got a big wire going there and my HD Drive module is
fitted onto the top of the floppy controller.
I think this is coreect but the usual "I didn't do it!" bit applies if
your ST starts smoking like a big burning thing.
