Last time I looked it could only see the SCSI devices. I'll look again.
And... it now sees my second HD partition, the CD ROM player and the ATA
Zip 100 drive. But not the SCSI Zip. Which is definitely different from
last time. Apart from changing the file system (which has had some odd
efffects, all of them nice) and partitioning the drive, nothing else has
changed.

The Zip cart with the system file was first used on this machine and I have
driver version 6.0 (well I would; that's the version that comes with the
G3).

Thank you very much for the advice. Luckily, in the case of utter
catastrophe I think I'm okay with the system CD and Norton DD on the
floppy.

It won't boot from the Norton CD, of course, because that is 7.6.1 and
clearly the G3 doesn't want to know about that. Not suprising, given the
ATA drives etc...
