I tried the 2842A again on the first PC, but in the other VL-slot. Now the disks show up nicely at boot, and I can verify the disks. Probably also format'em, but that I haven't tried for obvious reasons :-). But still it can't boot: "No system disk or disk error" (or thereabout) So still: Dos-disks and kernel on 1542A, unix on 2842A. PC's _are_ strange...
