- The only problems with the old roms is that the controller screw up when
- you change a disk in an external scsi device (i.e. syquest). If you have one
- of these drives or an external unit you may want to upgrade the roms unless you
- don't have any problems. The 2091 should work fine with the 2.04 roms.
