If you're going to boot from the SCSI drive, you'll need a BIOS extension
ROM on it.

Well, the DTC 3150 or 3250 (with floppy controller) is a pretty good one.
Forget the Seagate ST-01/ST-02; they tend to work with Seagate drives and
not much else
The Trantor T130 is pretty good (Trantor became part of Adaptec).
I'll see if I can think of some more...
