Well I've sorted some of it out.
After nothing worked following directions, I started trying random things. Why not?
One of the things, something I had tried earlier, was to install the ROM in the Pico's higher memory.
That burked the firmware. I kept wondering why the Pico light never lighted. Reinstalled firmware, again, and it lighted. Tried to put ROM into the Pico's attic: no lights, no load, firmware corrupted.
So if I refrain from installing ROM on the Pico, things work most of the time. I haven't kept track, counting every permutation. DID get the toolbox to install. Not any ISO files as CDs. I'll try WiFi next, holding my breath.
So it works. Probably 3/4 of the time with most of its functions. Oh well.
Thanks again for your assistance. If I'm ever asked about BlueSCSI I'll say "Reinstall the firmware after every attempted boot."
