Holding down the shift bar will interrupt the
extensions loading and allow you to turn on/off
extensions. opt/apple/p/r will zap the pram.
apple/opt/shift/delete will search the SCSI bus for
system folders.

Some quads have IDE drives, others have SCSI. The
SCSIs will work in the 7500. I don't think anything
other than cables would be migratable.
