Don:
I've been thinking about something for a while, and so let me see what you
think of it.
What would happen if I take my GVP SCSI host adapter, reset it's ID from 7
to 6, then hookup an XT SCSI adapter as ID 7 and then format a partition on
one of my drives using the XT adapter's ROM routines, fdisk, etc, and then
mount that partition on the Amiga side using CrossDOS? Is it possible for 2
SCSI host adapters to co-exist on the same bus? What are the possible
problems I would have with this setup? Can pluging in the second host
adapter onto the SCSI buss blowup (fry) any of the stuff on the buss?
(HD's, or GVP card)?
