      I have an enhanced 512k Mac with extra Dove memory and a Dove SCSI
board.  I recently bought a CMS SD60 hard disk to use with the Mac and
have been unable to get it to work properly.  If I try to boot the CMS
drive directly, the drive light goes on briefly and then I get a sad Mac
screen with id=0F0003.  If I boot from a floppy and then run CMS'
utility program, the utility program WILL recognize the drive and can
successfully perform all of its operations (e.g. formatting, installing
drivers, verifying blocks all seem to work).  If I then try to use a
program like the SCSI Bus status CDEV to mount the drive, the Mac gets
an id 3 system error.  I have made several calls to both Dove and CMS
and noone at either of the companies knows what's going on.  Has anyone
else had this problem and found a solution?  I am getting very
frustrated having a $800 hard disk that I can't use.
     Recent postings here indicate that there may be a serious bug in
the SCSI code in the ROMs that were put in my Mac when I got the ROM
upgrade in May 87 that may be the cause of my problems.  These messages
have also indicated that Apple will replace these defective ROMs for
free.  My local dealer doesn't know anything about this.  Can someone
tell me the name of a piece of paper from Apple that I can direct the
dealer's attention to?
     Any help would be greatly appreciated.
