well, I missed the meeting of you TC folks. But my excuse is valid... I
picked up a mac Quadra 950, w/ tons of cool A/V stuff, and a 21 inch
supermac monitor. Nothing 10 years old, except one of the hard drives- a
1.2 gig micropolis scsi made in 1987. huge.

        so, be that as it may, I cannot get the system to boot correctly with
both the boot drive and this other drive hooked up at once. not a scsi
ID conflict; if i unplug the big old micropolis, it boots, and i can
plug it back in while it's running and it's accessable. it's not marked
as a boot disk, a startup disk, and it has no system software on it. I'm
lost.

        Forgive my non-ancient computer babbling (1992, that's 6 yrs... seems
like a lot more to me, however :)
