Make sure that the SCSI drive to be used as drive D is set
to SCSI ID 0:0. Check the drive manual for information
on setting the SCSI ID for that device. The Return In-
stalled Devices utility in the Onboard utilities can also be
used to determine the SCSI addresses of peripherals on
the SCSI bus.

Make sure that SCSI parity is consistently enabled or dis-
abled on all devices on the SCSI bus.

Verify that the host adapter and the SCSI devices are
properly configured and installed.

Power should be cycled OFF and ON after changing any
values on a host adapter,

setup

program, or SCSI device

to be sure that the new initial values are loaded.

Make sure that the SCSI bus is properly terminated.

Make sure that the disk has a DOS partition and a DOS
format.

Check the cabling.

Problems Using Two SCSI Drives

Make sure that the SCSI drive to be used as drive D is set
to SCSI ID 0:1 or 1:0. Check the drive manual for infor-
mation on setting the SCSI ID for that device. The
Return Installed Devices utility in the Onboard utilities
can also be used to determine the SCSI addresses of pe-
ripherals on the SCSI bus.
