Was the Vulcan your boot drive?  If not, you ought to be able to yank it
without trouble.  Your system is actually firing up with the Vulcan
disconnected and the Buggie plugged in?  That should be all you need to
do...I know I had no trouble when I replaced my 20Mb Vulcan with a 250Mb
SCSI drive and an Apple HS-SCSI card...of course I am still using the
Vulcan power supply; in fact that's where I mounted the SCSI drive...
