Re: Catch 22?



Try this: make a boot up disk with the SCSI drivers on it so the OS can
see the SCSI disk.  Then you should be able to initialize it and/or load
the OS.

(A Ram disk makes this alot easier.)

1. Copy the system.disk that came with 6.01 and label it SCSI Boot
2. Remove 'Basic' and 'P8' from the SCSI Boot disk.
3. Copy the two SCSI drivers from the Install disk over to the
/System/Drivers folder on the SCSI Boot disk.  (SCSIManager.DRV and
SCSIHD.DRV)
4. Boot up on the SCSI Boot disk and insert the install disk and run the
install program.  You should now have access to the SCSI partitions and
be able to install the OS.

Thankx,
