Problems Booting the System from a SCSI Drive
Make sure that both standard fixed disks are mapped out
of the system.
Make sure that the SCSI boot drive address is set to SCSI
ID 0:0. Check the drive installation manual for informa-
tion about setting the SCSI ID for that device. The
Return Installed Devices utility in the Onboard utilities
can also be used to determine the SCSI addresses of pe-
ripherals on the SCSI bus.
Make sure that SCSI parity is consistently enabled or dis-
abled on all devices on the SCSI bus.
Verify the proper installation and configuration of the
host adapter and SCSI devices.
Power should be cycled OFF and ON after changing any
values on a host adapter,
setup
program, or SCSI device,
to be sure that a DOS format operation has been success-
fully completed.
Make sure that the SCSI bus is properly terminated.
Make sure that the intended boot disk has an active DOS
partition and a DOS format.
Check the cabling.
Problems Using a SCSI and a Standard Disk
Drive
The drives are configured as SCSI disk drive D and standard disk
drive C.
Make sure that the second standard fixed disk is mapped
out of the system.
