Hello Ralf,

  using a _GVP Serien II_ controller in my _A2000C_ I do have a problem with the
_A 2630_ and a _Syquest_ removable media.

The computer does not boot completely - the screen stays grey.
The syquest drive powers up but very often breaks down and the motor spins
down.. for several times - until the syquest gives up (after 5 retries).
Still the Amiga does not boot - I do have to reset the machine and it boots
correctly (sure after searching for 1 or 2 minutes for the syquest drive mounted
as SCSI-ID 0).

I don't like it too much.. any comment?

Bye

-Mike

PS: I'm still waiting for a copy of your book, I did order 8 month ago.
