RS/6000 43P-133 scsi timeout with boot floppies



Hi,

finally i'm trying to get woody on my 43P-133, using current boot disk
set (as of May 16). Though avaliable docs do not really explain/mention
to use boot.bin before rescue.bin i got this starting;-). But during
boot
up from boot.bin floppy the system hangs in scsi timeouts, just short
after "Now booting kernel". Error message looks like this (hand copied,
so not quite exact):

>SCSI host 0 abort (pid 0) timed out -resting
>SCI bus is beeing reset for host 0 channel 0
>ncr53c8xx_reset: pid 0 reset reset flags=2 serial_numbers=456 serial_number_at_timeout=456

with serial number counting continuously up and scrolling over the
screen. During this, LED from CD-Rom is blinking.

i changed origial disk scsi-id from 6 to 0 and also set floppy,disk and
cdrom (id 3) as boot device in sms, in that order, but same problem.

What's the problem here? Any hints?
