I'm surprised it is even booting at all. I have two 7213S's and when I upgraded
to a 340 and it wouldn't boot I spent quite some time on the telephone with
Kevin Pease. His last comment on the matter was that the ROM boot code was
trying to do multi sector IO and the drive did not support it (or vice versa, I
don't remember which). Pease actually suggested getting a smallish Connor just
to boot from!! His only other suggestion was to send him my second drive so he
could debug the boot code on his system with the drive. I told him I would be
willing to do without a second hard drive for up to a month and offered to send
it to him, but at the time (shortly after last year's ATL fest) he was too busy
to work on it. I haven't spoken to him since, and I am still having to boot
from a floppy.
