The EMAXII doesn't need an internal drive before it can read an external
one.  Without any hard drive connected you will need an EMAXII formatted
floppy in the machine.  The EMAX will then boot from the floppy by default.
Under MASTER 9 / Special, section 6 you can change the SCSI boot ID to
whatever your external SCSI IDs are set to.  Before using the new drives you
will need to format them first.  This is function is under MASTER 5.  If you
need the manual you can dowload it as a PDF from www.emulatorarchive.com
under the EMAXII section.

Hope this helps
Steve
