I am having problems connecting an external SCSI
HD to a Mac.  I would appreciate any advice or
pointers^.

The Equipment:
  Mac IIci, 5MB RAM
  Internal 40MB Quantum HD
  External 20MB Jasmine HD
  Latest System Software from Apple (6.0.5?)

The Problem:
  All machines off.  Connect Jasmine to external SCSI
  port.  Turn Jasmine on.  Turn on Mac IIci.  After
  a brief power-up, "sad-mac" comes on the screen
  with 0000000F<cr>00000001 underneath it.

What I've tried:
1.  The new system is installed on the internal HD.  I've trid
    (uh, tried) starting off the Jasmine with a system installed
    on there (with help from an old Mac II), but with same results.
2.  The Jasmine is internally terminated.  I've tried giving the
    Jasmine a new SCSI ID #, anywhere from 0 to 6, but with no
    result.  The internal HD is always 0, and the Mac is 7.
3.  If I plug in the Jasmine after the IIci has gone through its
    startup routine, I cannot see it on the desktop, but I CAN see
    it with programs like Apples HD SC Setup and SCSI Probe/Tools.
    These tools, however, have not helped/been successful in updating
    or mounting the Jasmine.
4.  The Jasmine is fine with older Mac IIs.

Please EMAIL suggestions to johnston@portia.stanford.edu.  Thank
you in advance for your help.
