I can try booting off the NCR-scsi if I can find a scratch disk to connect to that... Although I don't really think that this is relevant, as apparently MILO loads the kernel fine from your disk on the NCR-scsi, and that's the only point where it would make a difference, if I understand the situation correctly.
