Tango 2 without drivers installed is hanging my 6360 during Happy Mac phase of boot. Does that make any sense?

It's Alchemy Architecture, not Gazelle in which this card is problematic without the Great Gazelle PCI Fix.
Makes no sense to me unless some PCI equivalent of DeclROM in a NuBus Mac is present?

Any suggestions?

it takes 2 to tango for sure. idk what you're asking.

Sonnet Tango 2 is a combo USB/FW card incompatible with TAM/5500/6500 Gazelle architecture machine unless the fix is applied. It should be good in my 6360 and 6400 Alchemy architecture machines, along with the 5400, which I'm happily not dealing with ATM.

Why is it preventing full boot and might installing the drivers take care of the problem?
