The CMOS battery holds the partition information for the HD, without a working battery the machine won't boot from the SCSI HD anymore. ...
Well now that seems rather silly.

I haven't had any time to mess with it yet. Not sure what I am going to do with it. Maybe I'll come up with some ideas once I get it up and running.
Both my Amiga 3000's boot to the internal hard disk, and neither have a battery in them.

However, I always have to put an external terminator on the 3000's SCSI port in order to get them to boot.
