I unfortunately must join the ranks of those who haven't gotten this board
to work with XENIX.  I have a Sperry IT, an AT clone.  In my case, the machine
boots up normally, but large programs which begin to use the expansion memory
go non-deterministic.  The board passes all of the simple memory diagnostics
that I have been able to get my hands on.  Now, there have been discussions in
this newsgroup lately about incompatibilities of early Sperry (actually 
Mitsubishi) motherboards and EGAs.  I wonder if this is related?
