Ethernet uses two pairs of wire and they have to be twisted.  Therefore, out
of custom we use pairs one and two and they are attached to pin 1,2,3 and 6.
1&2 are a pair (pair 1) and 3&6 are a pair (pair 2).

The color of the pairs do not make a difference as long as you use the same
two colors at both ends.  I think I normally use Orange and Blue.  But the
customs differ from person to person.

I left out an important piece of information. The Syquest was running from
an I/O card.  The card was blown. I booted after removing each card and no
go until I removed the I/O card, then it booted right up. Put the card back
in, no go. There may already be warnings in Syquest/Iomega literature about
this I don't know since I don't own either one. But don't piggyback the
Iomega through the parallel port of a Syquest!
