Just got a great deal on a bills boards exspansion chassis but I'm having trouble getting it to work with An ICD SCSI + 2meg in it. If I let it autoconfig **GURU**. If I inhibit it and try and access the SCSI afterboot **GURU**. Seems to be at randon times and random GURU nubers but always on first attemtp to talk to the card. Could be the Bill's Boards as I have no other A2000 cards to try out on it. Any one been there before??? jack UUCP: {hplabs!hp-sdd ucsd nosc}!crash!pnet01!jackf ARPA: crash!pnet01!jackf@nosc.mil INET: jackf@pnet01.cts.com

I have a MonAMI Jr. a three slot terminated adaptor on my A500 and in it I have a HardFrame and an 8-UP with 2-megs... I have NO problems withn this combination... /// Steve Goldstein /// Digital Equipment Co \\\/// England. \XX/ goldstein%arrods.dec@decwrl.dec.com
