I tried calling them to ask about running the system on a 386SX with a
WD1006-SR2 controller card. (A 1:1 RLL card) They refused to say the system
would run. I have a machine at work with the exact same configuration that
runs SCO XENIX (even though SCO is also closed-mouth about RLL) and wanted
a platform that was binary compatible with work. 

Well, I don't have the bucks to buy SCO at all, and I don't have the bucks
to buy ESIX and find out it doesn't work.

Has anyone tried ESIX on a 386SX with a WD1006-SR2 controller card?
