I just installed ISC 2.2 on my system:
	DTK PEM2500 motherboard 4 Mb memory
	WD1007WAH controller
	Miniscribe 9380E

I've installed vpix, s/w dev sys, tenplus plus some other riff-raff with
no problems (well, it did take me awhile to get the low level formatting
correct).

I've run the byte benchmarks, and I'll post the results if there's any
interest.

Re: problems with DTK 2500.
      Rumour has that there are/where problems with the BIOS and Novell.
      ISC hadn't listed the DTK motherboards on the 2.2 compatibility
      list because they hadn't tested them yet (of course they can't
      tell you if it failed or just wasn't tested).
      DTK tested ISC on Mar 9 (didn't know which version) ok.

Can't say anything about the KEEN 2000.
