Mike, Contrary to my previous observation, the system DOES boot after about 30 seconds if the Konica has no disk inserted. However, it will not boot if the Konica is powered off at boot time. The system simply hangs. I have the Konica connected to the external SCSI port on the A3000 using a standard Mac-type SCSI cable. I have found that the internal drive must have the termination resistpaks installed in order to work correctly, even though the Konica is also terminated. Without termination on the internal drive, the system wouldn't do writes correctly, often hanging, and in one case the drive developed key errors which required reformatting. So far, I have the internal drive terminated and the Konica terminated and it all seems to work correctly except for the boot delay when a diskette isn't in the Konica or the hang if the Konica is powered off. If you have further suggestions, please leave them via EMAIL because I am leaving the country for the next two weeks. Happy Holidays.
