Hi Don,

Knowing nothing about LSI whatsoever - they appear to be the inverse of 
Adaptec, where the default BOOT SCSI-ID is 0 [zero], or is that a 
selectable thing to count down/up from the highest/lowest SCSI-ID on 
each buss?

What options can you change after pressing CTRL-C at the SCSI BIOS screen?
