Amiga 2000 with SCSI and IDE

[Ral-Clan]

I've seen Amiga systems before where I had to leave a non-bootable CD in the CD drive in order to the get the bootstrap to bypass the drive and move on to the next bootable drive.

I don't know much about IDE, but can you set the Rigid Disk Block setting on the CF card to increase its priority (this might be what someone else suggested)?

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this before, but the A2091 was never great with removable media devices. When I had one I used the GuruROM with it and it worked fine, but the Commodore ROMs (even 7.0) were probably designed a few years before CD drives became commonplace in computers.
