You know, now that I think about it, there's a very good program that
allows you to boot damned near any media you have on your system...and
this program fits on a floppy. It's called "Smart Boot Manager" and
it can be found at:
http://btmgr.webframe.org/
For that ancient machine, booting off a SBM floppy will allow you to
boot that SCSI CDROM--even if the BIOS won't let you do it natively.
This is something I keep in my arsenal at all times!
I dunno why I didn't remember it yesterday. I'm an idiot!
