Hello:
I take it all back about SCSI support. Sorry for the misinformation.
I got back to installing YDL3.0 today (work is for people who don't
know how to fish) and had complete success. I used M. Murtagh's
suggestion of disconnecting the I/O cables from the drives that I
wasn't installing to i.e. having only the target drive online. This
approach got me up and running - thanks.
Regards,
Bruce
