The 5099 is an earlier version.  It's possible that it's 60 MB only,
but later 5099's are reported to also be 150 MB.

``en24'' doesn't gimme a hint about SCSI vs. QIC-02.

Does it have a SCSI connector, or a direct PCB connector (like 5.25in
floppies, but 50-pin)?  The latter is QIC-02.  If so, try the `wt'
driver.  I think i'll be able to provide you with the interface card
jumper and switch settings once i'm back at home.
