There's no reason to not start up immediately on powerup; that's mostly
for systems with many drives so that they don't all start up
simultaneously.

If you are having the same problem I have due to our accelerators, I don't
think you will be able to boot off of the faster SCSI bus. However, if you
connect any other drives to the fast bus, or to a PCI SCSI card, they
should work.

My system boots off of a 4 gig drive on the motherboard SCSI, then, once
the kernel loads, it mounts root on an ultra wide PCI SCSI card and
several fast SCSI drives. If these systems had IDE on the motherboard,
(like the Motorola Starmax, for instace), I'd boot the kernel off of a
compact flash card, like my Amiga 1200 does. Then I'd have space for
another SCSI drive on the UW SCSI bus... Not a total waste, though,
because I have an "emergency" system on the 4 gig.

Sure! That's what we're here for!
