System 6.01 and CMS SCSI Cards



Update and solution to problem of installing 6.01 on a IIGS rom 3 with CMS 
Scsi card.

Thanks to tips from Mitchell Spector and Nathan Mates, I finally figured out 
the the scsi drivers that come on the Install Disk of System 6.01 as 
downloaded from ftp.apple.com are incompatible with CMS ver 3.0 and 
probably below -scsi cards.

I removed the scsi.manager and scsihd.driver files from the Install disk and 
replaced the same two files AND the CMS.driver from the CMS Utility disk 
into the driver folder and then booted from the Install disk.

With these scsi drivers installed, the Install disk recognizes the hard drive 
and installation went smoothly from that point.

The operating system seems much faster.. noticibly so.. I guess all you know 
that already.. but it was nice to see.

Thanks..

Hope this info helps some other newbie..
