Computer Will Not Boot from a SCSI Disk Drive

If both SCSI and non-SCSI disk drives are installed in

your computer, the non-SCSI drive is always the boot

device. If the computer has only SCSI disk drives,

check the following:

Make sure your computer’s CMOS

Setup

is set to

No Drives Installed.

Make sure the boot partition of the boot hard disk

is active. (The SCSI ID is usually set with jumpers

or switches on the drive.)

Partition the disk. Follow the instructions in the

documentation for the operating system you are

using.

If this does not solve the problem, see the trouble-

shooting information in the User’s Guide. As a last

resort, back up all data on the SCSI hard disk and per-

form a low-level format with the SCSISelect Format

Disk

option.
