Hi I'm still having problems getting the CDrom I bought to work with my
A2000 :<(

Setup:
      A2000 with Derringer 030 25Mhz accel running ADOS 3.1
      Hardframe SCSI card
      MB 8Mbyte ram board
      Maxtor 345Mbytes internal SCSI
      Iomega ZIP drive


The story:

I bought a CDrom from Mac wharehouse a coupla weeks ago.  When I tried to
connect it to my computer it seemed to interfere with the Maxtor.  So I
spent many frustrating nights juggling SCSI id's with no luck.  Then I
decided to confirm that the CDrom worked!  I took it to work and connected
it to my Mac and it did :<(  The good news is the drive works the bad news
is the problem is my Amiga :<(

When I connect the CDrom (SCSI ID 6 terminated) to my ZIP (SCSI ID 5
non-terminated) to my system (Maxtor internal SCSI ID 0 terminated (its on
the other side of the controller)) I get checksum problems on my boot
partition on the Maxtor!  If I reboot a coupla times the Maxtor no longer
shows up in the list of bootable devices!


Anybody got any ideas????

THANKS!
