1. Maybe I'm confused, but I thought holding down C during startup was
for internal CD drives and that for external SCSI devices, you need to
hold down Shift-Option-Command-Backspace.
2. Maybe try it without termination: Here's something I found at
http://www.macosx.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-63822.html
The PB 190 does not provide termination power - TP - to the SCSI bus, so
most things will either work best with no terminators at all or with one
of the external SCSI drives providing TP. The drive may have either a
switch or a jumper to have the drive provide termination power to the
SCSI bus. This is separate from termination, this is the power that
the terminator uses to properly terminate the bus. The exact setup that
is called for is to connect the PB using the HDI-30 adapter, attach a
SCSI pass-through terminator, then the cable to the rest of the SCSI bus
devices. Then the last device also gets a terminator. At least one of
the devices needs to provide termination power, and not more than two.
With a short chain, or a single device, you can get by usually with just
one end terminated. But without termination power, the terminater is
floating electrically, and does not work correctly.
