Re: KA410 Boot Failure With TKZ-50

The filename says tk50 but your message says TKZ-50.  I don't know
enough details to know the answer to this - but could it be that the
TKZ-50 is different enough to break the TK-50 bootloader?

Oh!  Sorry for misunderstanding.

Your drive is capable of both SCSI and TMSCP?  Or you don't know which?
I don't know enough to say anything definite, though I would guess that
you could tell the difference based on the physical layer - I don't
think TMSCP used the same physical layer SCSI did, but, again, ICBW.
