Call 800 538-9696 to get the name and address of the nearest authorized
A/UX dealer.  Apparently (from what I've seen here in comp.unix.aux)
there are some unofficial mail order places like Maya Computers.  Their
address is in the back of any MacWeek magazine.

If your drive manufacturer doesn't provide A/UX compatible partitioning,
you may need to reformat the disk using a third party product.
SilverLining by LaCie is the one most frequently recommended on this
newsgroup.

This should work, as long as you have a MacOS driver for the Denon
drive.

Sorry, A/UX doesn't support more than 1 monitor (unless you run strictly
X Windows as your interface.)  Since the SE/30 only has 1 slot, you
can't have both Ethernet and an external monitor.  I'm using the Asante
SE/30 ethernet board in my SE/30, and it works fine.
