Thanks Jason, I’ll attempt to boot it as soon as I hear that it’s available.

I think that I am covered on the SCSI controllers, as I have a qlogic 1040
and an LSI 53c875 coming, but I appreciate the offer, and will let you know
if I end up needing one. I do have an Acard SATA-UW SCSI bridge that I’d
like to use, as that would be a great way to use a modern SSD in this
machine.

Thanks!
