I recently purchased SCSI2SD v5.0b (4.8.1 firmware) to replace the drive on my NeXTcube Turbo. I set it up with a config from here :
https://ctrl-alt-rees.com/2018-09-19-nextstation-easy-scsi2sd-setup.html, and was able to install a clean OpenStep 4.2 onto it from my OpenStep 4.2 CD-ROM. The install went fine, no errors, etc, but now the cube simplt refuses to boot off it; I get a "sc: scintr program error" every time it tries to boot off the drive, and get throw into the monitor. Will boot fine off my actual hard drive, so it must be something with the SCSI2SD card and/or config.
So asking if anyone has a working SCSI2SD config xml file that is known to work for a v5.0b card with the latest 4.8.1 firmware, running under a turbo (040) system, that they can share. It'll be the only internal drive in the SCSI chain, so terminating resistor packs are left installed.
Thanks in advance.

I've almost the same issue, scintr program error without stop booting...
@tiritea Hi there.
For your SCSI2SD OPENSTEP drive, is it 1, 2 or 4GB? From my recollection of OPENSTEP, the boot drive can only be a maximum of 2GB. ALL other 'drives' can be 4GB.
Did you use the magic numbers of:
SectorsPerTrack=139
HeadsPerCylinder=4
I *may* have a SCSI2SD XML setup file hanging around somewhere which could also be of use.
