I was building a cable to go from the 37 pin Bernoulli box to the 25 pin port on the 2090 (NOT 2090a), and while every line from the 37 pin connector was supported on the 25 pin connector, there were 2 pins on the 25 pin connector that were not on the 37 pin connector; Pin 17, labled as "ATN" and pin 25, labled as "TPWR". Are these pins needed by the Bernoulli box or by the 2090 itself for it to work? When I try to prep the drive, the drive access light comes on and stays on, and prep aborts with the "device not prepped" message. Is it OK for me to bind all the ground lines togather? This problem aside, can the 2090 control both drives in the unit? Only the first drive seems to become active when I try to prep res2:, but I haven't seen any info on setting up a mountlist entry for a device at the same SCSI ID as another, just using a different logical unit. What is the proper number of cylinders/heads for the 10 meg Bernoulli box? I am using 306 & 2, with 64 sectors per cyl. Dave
