This is just anecdotal, but I have a Toshiba XM-3301B CDROM, plugged into an IN-2000 SCSI board. There is also a Viper Tape drive plugged in. Until yesterday, the addresses were (and worked) as follows: 0 – Hard disk (Maxtor) 1 – CDROM 6 – Tape 7 – SCSI controller The day before yesterday, I received ROM upgrades for the IN-2000 (to support Columbia's new driver for OS/2). After installing the new ROMs, I began receiving a bootup nastygram regarding invalid hard disk blocksizes, with a recommendation to "low level format the hard disk." Then the system proceeded to come up and operate normally! I called Always (IN-2000) support. They informed me that with the ROM upgrade, I should move the address of the CDROM so it was not adjacent to that of the hard disk (i.e., 1 and 0 respectively). I changed the SCSI Id on the CDROM to 3, rebooted, and the problem went away. FWIW, Don G.
