I have discovered the same thing on my 2.0 system. I tried to install
the SilverLining Cirrus Init for Syquest drives in the A/UX System Folder
but when I start a session, I get a crash with ID=12. I assume this is
because this INIT uses the SCSI Manager but I'm not sure.
If anyone finds out how to use removable MacOS media under A/UX, please
let me know too! Thanks.
