Jim,

Will MOS2.8 be able to boot from SCSI or SATA controllers or will these drive only work after booting from PATA?
not useful SCSI HD bootable ... but yes you can bootstrap from HD SCSI and SATA, but the kernel need to be in a "bootable"/viewable unit for the OpenFirmware (in Macintosh) and for SmartFirmware (in PegasosI/II and Efika)
For exemple you can have an hd PATA in a Mac (with inside the MorphOS kernel boot.img, bootinfo.txt) and a bootable SFS partition in a HD SCSI or SATA (if SCSI and SATA host adapters supported in MorphOS2.x)
