I'm guessing here, but i think that their are two problems (possible 
related?  i don't know).  One is the 1.2 installation disks.  The second 
is the ICD Pro Utilities.

ICD numbers the devices connected to the TT scsi port 8-15 and devices 
connected to their Adscsi host adapter 0-7.  Since i don't need the host 
adapter (the TT has a scsi port), my drives are numbered 8 and 9.  
The aptck.ttp program cannot find anything when given the arguments s00.  
However, if i run 'aptck.ttp a00' (i have nothing connected to the acsi 
port) I get the info on my internal scsi drive:

Device     : a00 (ACSI target 0 lun 0) [unknown]

aptck doesn't seem to be liking the drive too much (why all the bad 
sectors?  ICD doesn't report this).  I have formatted my drive with ICD 
to be AHDI compatible.  When i start the loadbsd.ttp program, it does 
correctly report my drive "sd0 at scsibus0 targ 0 lun 0".  Though i'm 
still not able to open a shell even with the new 1.2 miniroot. :(

any ideas?
