@foone I saw the colour coding guide on the box of RJ-45 plugs the other day, and wondered if that had been deployed as a Pride flag yet.

Then I realized "Attracted to people who can wire their own network" is probably an legitimate preference.

Consider me Ethersexual.

@xenenic Is there any way to install an option ROM and use the XT-IDE Universal BIOS? Or even set it as "no hard disc", boot from floppy, and use something like https://github.com/rvalles/optromloader to load it?

I have a 386SX Magnavox desktop, and its BIOS will let you enter a geometry up to 8Gb(!) but the onboard BIOS did not know what to do with a SD-IDE adapter with a large card in it. XUB solved it, although the original BIOS reports an IDE error before booting.
