1) Could someone send me (or tell me where to find) a list of
which Macs have internal scsi termination and which don't? I
found out last night (the hard way, of course) that the SE
doesn't. I'd like to avoid that kind of fun in the future.

2) After reformatting my drive, I restarted the mac, booting
from a floppy. It would access the hard drive, then give me
a sick mac symbol and under that show:

		0000000F
		0000000C

without ever accessing the floppy. I had to remove power from
the hard drive to get it to boot (from the floppy), then
reinstalled the driver on the hard disk. After that, things
went much better. So my curiosity is peaked - what does the
above code mean and why did it stop the boot process without
ever accessing the floppy drive?
