Robert,
 Yup - if ANY devices on the SCSI bus work properly, you probably have it
hooked up right. FWIW, the tape drive does its little song-and-dance even if no
SCSI cable is hooked up to it when you power it up.
 Maybe the next step is to run through it with sysdbg and see how far you do
get. Remember, putting breakpoints in drivers (and especially interrupt
routines) will bring your system down. But then, that's what reset buttons are
for! You may have to power down to reset the SCSI device. If you can
re-assemble sbviper and place global symbols (end in ":") at strategic points,
it will make debugging a lot easier.
 Lots of luck!
 Mark
