I don't think he wants to boot from the SCSI, but he does want to exploit the
striping capability of the MYLEX board. What's more, he's going to want to
attach both narrow and wide drives, though I doubt the MYLEX software will
allow striping across different drive sizes.
Right now, I simply wish I could force the assignment of specific resources to
the MYLEX board via the Plug-n-Pray logic, but that doesn't seem to work.

I think it depends on the BIOS of the motherboard. My workstation system
has both IDE and SCSI, but boots from drive 0 on the first SCSI chain.
