In wide scsi what are the ids that are usually used for boot devices.
For narrow scsi, i know it's 0 and sometimes 1, but was wondering if
any of the ids from wide scsi are also used.

Thanks,

Thanks, however I already knew the priority. I was just asking about
what wide scsi ids (15- are typically used for boot devices, if any
are. I know the narrow ids 0 and 1 are, but was wondering about wide
bootable scsi ids.
