- If this is the ONLY device on the SCSI bus, it sounds like it is trying
- to boot from the drive - it WILL hang for quite awhile before it gives up
- and finishes booting. This happens to my system if I do not have a CDROM
- installed in the drive. You may be able to either 1) remove the BOOT ROM from
- the controller and install the driver in the expansion drawer 2) disable the
- BOOT rom with a jumper on the card (sorry, don't remember which one or 3)
- try to move your HD (if you have one) to a smaller ID #.
