Basically what it is is that I have a MVII in the catered case (BA123, I
think) and it now has three RD54s and an RD53 and a RX50. Just out of
interest, how are your drives set up. Do you have two of the controller
cards, or just one and no floppy?

OK, supposing I get that lot to work, how do you tell it to boot from
the first RX50?, I'm new to this. The main thing I can tell you is that
the indicator lights only come on for the top two drives when power is
applied. That's the HALT/READY buttons for the hard drives. The machine
is made up of the original machine and bits from a dead machine.
