Kurt,

You probably have an older ROM revision that'll only boot off sd0, found that out myself:

Bit about booting off sd0 is near the bottom of the writeup.

Thanks,

I looked in the Sun FE handbook on bitsavers but couldn't find anything there unique to the 3/50. I'm pretty sure my SCSI chain is ok or the installation wouldn't have worked. Any clues?
