Tim,
I've seen Wide to Narrow connector adaptors. Could'nt you use one of
those instead?

Subject: Moving kernel location

How would one change the pointer to the kernel location? To make a
silly story short, if I want to boot FreeBSD from my HDD running from a
AHA2940W without having to unplug my external SCSI Zip drive (running
off a ISA 1542), I need to tell all concerned parties to boot from sd1
instead of sd0. (I need the two SCSI cards so I can have my cake (fast
HDD) and eat it too (external SCSI I connector).
I have changed "fstab" entries and rebuilt the kernel with config
line
pointing to "sd2". Beyond that, I'm lost. At the moment, I'm not
concerned with mounting anything on the Zip drive - this is just a
convience question.
Thanks to all concerned
Tim Palmer
