Has anyone put 4.2bsd on an 11/725 or have an RC25 disk driver?

We recently purchased an 11/725, and are interested in running 4.2bsd
on it. (We have already been warned about performance, but we're going
to try it anyway!) The 11/725, for those unfamiliar with it, has an 11/730
cpu, TU58 tape drives, an RC25 disk, and we have installed a DMF32 board
as well as the ethernet boards. Has anyone succeeded in putting 4.2bsd
on an 11/725? Could you offer some words of advice?
Because the cpu is an 11/730, and other than the disk drive, all the
peripherals are supported by 4.2bsd, all that stands between us and putting
Unix up ourselves is a disk driver. (That, and actually transfering the code
from our 780 to the 725!) Has anyone written a driver for the RC25?
Hopefully thanks can be sent out from our newest 4.2 machine!
