Well.... I was missing some of my SCSI drives off the desktop and having to restart twice in order to get my Desktop to show up sometimes.
I thought it might be a quirk because of running OS 10.2.4 OS9.2 and OS9.1 on an old PCI Clone. Strangely enough, about once in four or five starts the CD-ROM internal drives would not work and the System Info listed them and one of the SCSI drives as parallel devices. Anyway, I pulled the bottom SCSI hard drive and replaced it with a drive that has the two red resistor termination strips right on the top of it. Bingo !!! I did that last night and have assiduously shut down and powered-off the CPU half-a-dozen times since then , and every time I restarted the Jaguar 10.2.4 Desktop has appeared promptly with all SCSI & ATA drive icons present. Except for the CD-ROM drives I'm not really even using the SCSI chain. I have a Sonnet card and a couple of new large capacity ATA drives. Can I get a terminator that plugs into the SCSI cable to terminate it ??? M -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
