Re: Emax II not booting from HD

2011-12-12 by Simon

I know this was the case with Emax Is, but my other Emax II will happily boot from any SCSI ID once set in the master settings. 
The uncooperative Emax doesn't do the SCSI ID scan either but simply demands a system floppy.
Were there many differences between the board revisions?..
