I was thinking of a SCSI adapter that plugged into the bulkhead somehow.
This is plainly rediculous, but a nifty idea nontheless.
You could put your SCSI drive into one of those pull-out
"mobile adapter" things. But you probably should not pull
it out without idling the SCSI bus first.

Fortunately /vmunix & /oldvmunix is a familiar procedure from back in
my PMAX device driver hacking days.

This came in handy for me too when I went the route of messed up MAXUSERS
screwage.
That'll do it too ;)
On
another note, were there any SCSI adapters that made use of the BA23/
BA123 RD disk control buttons? Would be nifty to swap in a new ra0 by
simply taking a disk offline/online.
Hmmm, those buttons/cabling are for RD/MSCP devices - not sure if it's
possible to use them with SCSI devices.
