It seems that while I can't find the data "sheet"/booklet for the 82593
that I used when hacking on the drive, it is in the 1993 version of the
Intel "Connectivity" databook that I have.

I'll take it into work next week, and copy the relevent pages.  I can
either mail or fax them to you.

Also, I don't think that this part as an 82585 compatability mode.  There
is some discussion on changes from the 82590 part.
