Surprise, surprise, A/UX will not use the MacOs drive stored on the hard
disk. Instead it has it's own general SCSI hard disk device driver.

We are trying to document a lot of issues concerning MacOS and A/UX 
SCSI hard disk issues at DTS, you will expect to see a Tech Note or
so, let us say, real soon now.
