I'd guess it's an Everex problem. I have the same environment (512ke with
Dove 2Meg, Dove SCSI and a Jasmine drive) and it works just fine under
6.0.2. What you don't say is *why* it isn't booting. Are you getting an
error dialog or some other detail? Did you install 6.0.2 on the hard disk
with the installer? If not, the boot blocks might not be set up right.
