Yeah, I was so frustrated that I forgot to mention some relevant
details.  Anyway, it's a Tekram dc-390u2w SCSI controller.  Strangely
enough, it doesn't have a "bootable" option.  But I did notice that
when I manually disabled the SCSI hard drives that the SCSI controller
would say "no bootable devices found---SCSI BIOS not installed."  So
what I did was go into the SCSI BIOS setup and tell it not to scan the
SCSI IDs where my hard drives are.

So now I'm booting off of the new system!

The new problem, though, is now my SCSI CD-ROMs don't work.  The hard
drives work fine.  The SCSI device driver *is* recognizing the SCSI
CD-ROMs.  However, I can't mount any /dev/scdx device.

Any thoughts there?

Thanks!
Matt
