I'm not sure about system commander, having never used it myself, but it most
likely has to do with the number scheme of the hard drives and or partitions.
Not knowing how you have partitioned all the drives, inserting the IDE drive
has most likely moved your OS2 partition from place 2 to place 3. There should
be some functionality in Syscommander to point to the correct partition.
I can't remember all the syntax right now but there are entries like:
scsi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT
scsi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(1)\OS2
If syscommander reacts like my NT box does, calling all drives scsi, just
because there's a SCSI controller, then your OS2 partition has moved to:
SCSI(0)disk(2)rdisk(0)partition(1)\OS2
or some such
I've probably got some of the syntax wrong but...
Hope it helps
