SCSI2SD Shutdown Issues with SE/30
Posted by: tt on 2018-02-13 22:37:38
I have been trying to use either a SCSI2SD V5 or V6 with a SE/30 (with hacked ROM) and it would not shut down properly. I kept thinking it was the sequence in which I patched and upgraded to System 7.5.5 and then one time I had a real HDD (68 pin type) in the mix and then it was able to go to the final shut-down screen. I remember reading about the OS waiting for an all-clear signal from the HDD, but I don't have the issue with System 7.0.1. Anyone have a similar experience?

If you still have the stock ROM, it might be worth seeing if that corrects the issue.

It works ok with a stock ROM, but once I switch to a 32-bit clean ROM and re-patch the OS, it won't shut down properly unless a real HDD is in the chain. I thought with all the custom ROMs floating around, there's got to be someone else that has experience with this configuration.
