Help with Apple HiSpeed SCSI



I recently installed an Apple HiSpeed SCSI card on a friend's 
Rom01.  I set up the 105 mg HD on my RamFAST, then installed 
it on his GS/Apple SCSI.

At bootup to the finder, after showing partitions 1 through 4, 
there is then a dialog box showing that there is already a 
partition named "HD1" and that this [spurious] partition 
must be renamed "HD12."  If I choose EJECT instead of RENAME, 
it then continues to give the same message for 
each of the other partitions, for each slot, going from device 0-3, 
slot 2, through slot 7.  If I EJECT all 24 spurious partitions, 
then everything functions normally from that point on.

I tried running Apple SCSI Utilities to verify partitions.  
It shows 8 partitions, named HD1, HD2, HD3, HD4, HD1, HD2, HD3, HD4.  
When I try to verify any of the partitions, I get the message 
"bad boot block" and the program locks up.  I have tried this 
with the original version [1986?] of the SCSI Utilities, and the 
last one [1993?], which specifically mentions the HiSpeed SCSI card.

Is there anything I can do short of repartitioning the entire 
drive on the Apple SCSI card and then reinstalling all the programs?

TIA
