What I meant was on a SHO DEV I got 7 Quantum Fireballs (DKA0-500, DKA700), in
my VAX days this meant there was either an ID conflict with another device on
the bus or a termination issue. I only had one image on the sdcard which was
ID0 so there weren’t any other devices present, so it had to be a termination
issue.
