I have a similar, though slightly different manifestation of this problem. In my case, the computer starts up okay, but if I give a "restart" command from either the Special menu or pushing on the start key, my 7600/G3 starts up okay with a happy mac, then it freezes on a grey screen. The only solution is to manually turn it off, then start by pressing the start up key. No problems then. Likewise, no ID conflict or termination problems, and it only manifests itself when two HDs are installed. I've just put it down to the mysteries of SCSI voodoo and work on despite it, since nothing bad seems to be happening. You may just have to put up with it.
