Ok, I disconnected all the other drives on the Mesh bus and the boot
gets a little further but the drive still isn't recognized. Can this be
right? It seems to be recognizing everything else, my ATI Rage IIc video
card, both my Asante (DEC based) 10BT card and my Farallon (3COM 3c959)
10/100BT card. Here's the full boot message:
