Just a thought. Are the IDE cables and slave/master settings done correctly on both your IDE HD and IDE CD? This could affect the HD's ability to boot. Paul C

Thank you all for the great suggestions.  The ATA133 Tempo card and hard
drive are now up and running, a step in the direction of installing OS X.
Application startup zips along.

Command Option P & R got me into a dark hole, no display on monitor.
Getting the new firmware for the Tempo may have been the solution, but it is
hard to know for certain.

Even now that it is working, if I leave the old SCII drives connected, no
amount of blessing, or selecting startup device will allow a boot to the new
ATA drive.  Only totally disconnecting the SCII drives will allow a boot to
the ATA drive  -- weird, but not important, the SCII drives are out.

I also got a new Lite-ON IDE CD RW.  I wanted to leave in the old internal
SCII CD to make copying easier but that maybe asking too much.  With CD
Toolkit 4.01 extensions active I only can load a disk from the old SCII CD.
With Apple's CD extensions active I can only load a disk from the new IDE
drive.  Any ideas here?

Thanks again. Barry
