(and the SE/30 too!) Message-ID: <839@orbit.UUCP> Date: 29 Mar 89 01:05:17 GMT Sender: root@orbit.UUCP Organization: People-Net [pnet51], Minneapolis, MN. Lines: 19 Jeff, I've found that the SE/30 sings for you also. For example, hit the reset switch while in the power-up sequence--get the sad Mac and hear a tune. Question for EVERYONE in general-- I now have an SE/30 with the internal 40 meg drive (which, btw, is FAST). The internal is set a SCSI 0, and is my startup drive. I have an external Mirror 40 meg (SCSI 4) and 40 meg tape drive (SCSI 1). I am finding that when I have the external drive/tape plugged in but NOT powered on, I cannot boot the SE/30. At all. Just a grey screen--not even a flashin disk. This sounds reminiscent of the older Pluses...or do I just have a termination problem? Note that the tape drive is hard-coded at SCSI 1, so I can't change addressing on it, if that's an issue. .-----------------------------------------------------------------------------. | UUCP: {rosevax, crash, orator}!orbit!pnet51!pj | "Ah!
