I do not understand precisely what is going on. You mean if you enable the IDE drive in the BIOS setup, windows works, but Linux doesn't?
You shouldn't use the map-drive options but rather inform lilo about what drive is seen where by the BIOS using DISK and BIOS directives: disk=/dev/hda bios=0x80 disk=/dev/sda bios=0x81 disk=/dev/sdb bios=0x82 Nils -- Plug-and-Play is really nice, unfortunately it only works 50% of the time.
