I still need an answer about the FDDs if anyone knows offhand, but in the meantime I'll ask for critique of this reboot of the proposed hack:
In order to get around the limitations and quirks of the Luggable's PDS, I'm looking at wedging the Micromac card directly onto the 68000 in a manner similar to the "soldered on socket" workaround for Killy Klip resistant DIP 68000s in the Compacts. Using a PB FDD that draws less water than the Portable's, It looks like I can machine away enough clearance to attach the Accelerator directly to pins soldered to the SMT 68000 using a simple adapter PCB soldered to the underside of the unpopulated EuroDin connector thru holes. The 68000 socket almost rests on the Luggable's MoBo, with the only three components "in the way" nestled neatly withing the socket!
On the driver side, if the standard SE-PL-CL driver doesn't work, I'm wondering if I can just lift the power leg of the SMT 68000 so the driver shutting it down never need come into play? The Accelerator would "just work" in place of the 68000 in that config.
Dunno, thoughts? :?:
