I'm posting this for a friend. I have almose the identical set-up and
it works fine for me so I'm turning to you find folks for an answer:
> I want to hook up my 5 1/2" disk interface card to my GS and get it to
> work along with my 3.5" drive and my SCSI drive. I have the regular
> 3.5 drive plugged into the smart port and the old original Apple SCSI
> (not high-speed) card in slot 7. Everything works just fine this way.
> When I plug in the 5 1/2" card (from an Apple II) into slot 6, the
> system INSISTS on booting from slot 6 no matter what the settings are
> on the control panel. Yes, I've told it to boot from slot 7 and even
> had it scan. I've set slot 6 to 'your card' and disk card - it doesn't
> matter. I've even moved the disk card to a different slot (ie 2) and
> set it to 'your card' and it still INSISTS on booting from the 5 1/2"
> card. And of course I've gone thru all of the possible combinations of
