Yeah, the manuals toss off a bit, but I've had no trouble connecting my
duo in SCSI disk mode to any mac without ever using another terminator.

Just shut-down both macs, plug em in, flick the scsi switch on
your scsi adapter if it has one, power on the 180 by using the actual
power button at the back, wait till it whacks the scsi symbol on the screen,
then start up your powerwave.

make sure the 180 is set to a scsi device no. (Powerbook setup Control Panel)
that doesn't conflict with the powerwaves devices. maybe even make sure the
volume names of the two drives are different (i.e Macintosh HD).

have fun.
