Dear Dr B.
The question mark after the word driver was meant to indicate some doubt as to whether or not this file is the driver in question. The file, of course, may have nothing to do with the AST Mac86.
When I have a interesting hardware device that lacks only the driver software I check out everything that looks even close. Most of the time it turns out to be just as useless as you predict but sometimes...
Cheers

Well, the 'driver' used a 20 MB disk image for use with the Mac286, so it's possible that the 'driver' was shipped with a 20 MB disk image. Just as how many of the questionably-legal OSx86 'Hackintosh' Torrent files aren't just for the couple-hundred-kilobyte hack-files, but are for a full disk image. Technically, that isn't *needed*, but it makes it easier to use. Likewise, I would imagine that the large file found on Torrent is the drivers PLUS the hard disk image.
Of course, after typing the above, I have determined that TB2Mac86CD.dmg is really "Timbuktu for Mac, version 8.6, CD image"
