I'd imagine that the disk driver would be a possible source of problems,
since IBM's embedded ESDI disks have a rather unusual controller
which does not look at all like your typical MFM/RLL AT-bus controller.
(I know AIX PS/2 1.2 added support for the Mod 55 with its MFM disk.
I don't know whether it looks like most AT-bus type controllers.)
