Isn't the correct name of Xylogic's controller the "7053"?  Why do people
insist on dropping the "0"?  Anyway, here is the entry you are looking for
(with a sample partition table):

disk_type = "CDC 9720-1230" \
        : ctlr = XD7053 \
        : ncyl = 1633 : acyl = 2 : pcyl = 1635 : nhead = 15 : nsect = 83 \
        : rpm = 3600 : bpt = 50400 : bps = 600

partition = "CDC 9720-1230" \
        : disk = "CDC 9720-1230" : ctlr = XD7053 \
        : a = 0, 8715 : b = 7, 33615 : c = 0, 2033085 : d = 34, 978570 \
        : f = 7, 1012185 : g = 817, 1012185
