I made it even easier by putting one system on my main ATA drive and another on an
internal SCSI drive. This way if I start up and decide I want the SCSI drive I can
just hold down the shift, option, delete and apple keys (SODA) and the ATA drive
is bypassed and the OS on the SCSI drive is used. This way I don't even have to go
into the start up control panel.... Restart just takes me back to the ATA drive.
Works for me.....
