Greetings:
I hope someone can steer me in the right direction, the SCSI voodoo stuff is
confusing.
I have two mac 575's with upgraded full 040 chips. In the performa I
installed 1.4.2 without a hitch. But the drive is small (250 meg) so I
thought I would go ahead and install on my other 575 (an LC),but using the
external 1 gig SCSI HD. (a refurbed Microp.) When I first got the drive
hooked up I used it as a single large mac partition and everything worked
fine.
So I partitioned for NetBSD use, left a little for MacOS, and did a full
install. No problems. But during boot it would get to, "so I sez to him..."
and hang. And now I find that I cannot either restart or reboot the MacOS
from the menu. It hangs and I have to reboot from the keyboard. If I unplug
the HD, it reboots and shutsdown OK. I have restored the drive to one mac
partition, upgraded my drivers (Apple Drive setup 1.7.2) but no joy.
I realise that there aren't always easy answers for SCSI problems, but
anyone have a general idea of where I should go with this? Thanks.
