Re: Dock II, internal IDE, external SCSI...boot off SCSI!???
According to my memory (and my Adaptec High Performance Bus Manual),
"If both SCSI and non-SCSI disk drives are installed, then the non-SCSI
drive is always the boot device."
Only alternative is to remove/disable the non-SCSI and then you can boot
from the SCSI.
I hope that helps..
