CD ROM failure

[CRAFJAY@minna.acc.iit.edu (Jay Craft)]

I seem to having problems with my CD-ROM (it's an Apple CDSC, the
big one that requires caddies).  I have an Apple Hi-Speed SCSI in
slot 7 of my GS, connected to a 44 meg Quantum drive in an external
case, chained to the CD-ROM, with a terminator.

When I boot the computer, both scsi devices power up, but they
don't boot.  Instead, my 3.5 drive boots!  Using the Apple SCSI
utilities, it shows the CD-ROM as drive 1 with my HD partitions
as 2,3,4.  It's apparently trying to boot the CD-ROM, and 
changing the SCSI ID numbers on either device and the card don't
seem to work (unless I missed something).  The hard drive and 
CD-ROM show up on Copy // Plus (CDROM as S7 D1, HD as S7 D2).

To get my computer to startup, I have to turn the CDROM off with
no CD until the "Welcome to //GS" screen, and then I can turn it
on.  The CD-Remote plays audio CDs, but since I can't boot the
system properly I can't use it for anything else... Can anyone
help?

Also, the CD-ROM may have been damaged by a wicked SCSI chain of
some sort, but it's obviously not totally dead...
