Re: [emax] external ZIP 100 problem

2007-10-16 by Dave Sotnick

You can format the zip but you won't be able to boot to it, since the Emax I
only boots to SCSI ID# 0, and as you pointed out the external zip has only
IDs 5 and 6).

Once the Plus OS is booted from floppy, hold down the TRANSPOSE button on
the Emax and press 5 or 6 to change the current SCSI ID to match the ZIP
drive. Now try to format the zip (which should indeed be terminated).
