Does the SCSI disk contain a boot loader that might have accidently been loaded? How is your BIOS setup? Does your machine boot from IDE or SCSI first? If the SCSI disk does not contain a boot loader the machine should be booting from IDE even if the SCSI disk is tried first. If it does contain a boot loader this one is probably misconfigured for your current setup. You either have to update your BIOS to boot from IDE instead, or update the boot loader configuration of your SCSI disk. If you boot from SCSI you will need an initrd.img (man mkinitrd) to load the SCSI modules before booting. Bye, Leonard. -- How clean is a war when you shoot around nukelar waste?
