I've got a Tandberg 3600 drive (SCSI QIC-150), together with a Seagate 200M
hard disk and an AHA1542B controller.

I tried setting up the disk at SCSI ID 0, and the tape at SCSI ID 2. I got
I/O errors. I read on this group that the current driver gets peeved if the
SCSI IDs don't occur in strictly sequential order, so I tried making it ID
1. No hope, of course; I couldn't get past the BIOS initialization where the
AHA1542B was trying to use the Tandberg as drive D:.

Any suggestions?
