Your mission, should you choose to accept it:
Install a pair of Wide SCSI hard drives into an innocent Mac G3.
This journal entry writer will self destruct...
Erf. So I pick this poor abused machine apart, swap in a DVD-ROM, add a pair of SCSI-3 drives... and discover that the machine doesn't recognize the NCR SCSI cards... and totally hangs on boot with the BusLogic card. *scratches her head* With the BusLogic card in it, Open Firmware can see both of the SCSI drives... so the card 'works'... but making it function under Mac OS X seems to be the trick. :p
Off to tweak more. There has to be a way to make this work. :p
*hugs*
