Subject: sysinst says disk not found on a PowerPC 6500/250 (checking termination)

Hello.
I was so excited to pass the "milestone" and actually
get a prompt on an old mac, but sysinst can't find my
hard disk.
dmesg says
...
scsibus0 at mesh0: 8 targets, 8 luns per target
...
scsibus0: waiting 2 seconds for devices to settle
...
netBSD manual said to see the macppc FAQ.
macppc FAQ said that if sysinst could see scsibus0,
but couldn't read the disk that I should "check the
termination".
I don't know how to do this. I remember vaguely
what termination meant when daisy-chaning a bunch of
external SCSI devices. I don't know what it means for
an internal hard drive. There is also a Zip drive on
the same bus it looks like. The hard drive has always
loaded MacOS 7.5.3 well.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
