Some questions:
* a small descriptions of the Guru ROMs...?
* which is the device name? omniscsi.device? gvpscsi.device?
* can I use the HDToolBox to config the HD?
* usual way (HDToolBox [device] from CLI)?
* have I to term the external SCSI port of the card?
* When I put a jumper in the J4 the computer don't do anything... J4 is the autoboot jumper, right?

Thanx to all...

I use OS 3.9 GVP 2000-HC+8 & Guru ROM v6.14 and the following work for me:
1. For info on Guru ROMs see http://babel.de/amiga.html
2. The device name is omniscsi.device for a Guru ROM
3. Yes, set tooltype to omniscsi.device. You can also use the GVP prep tool but again set tooltype to omniscsi.device.
4. Try "HDToolBox askdevice" or "HDToolBox device omniscsi.device" from CLI. This might be unique to OS3.9?
5. I do not have a term on the external port. The trouble with the GVP card is it does not provide term power, but in theory whatever device is at each end of the SCSI bus should be terminated including the controller if it is at the end.
6. Yes J4 is the autoboot jumper.

All the best
Nigel
