Are they. perchance, attached to the *second* connector on your IDE system? MNost EIDE adapters (and MBs) have two connectors and can support 4 devices. But linux will not simply assign hda to the first available device, etc; hda is the first device on the first chain, etc. Just a thought. I believe you could change this with boot parameters. -- |Deryk Barker, Computer Science Dept. | Music does not have to be understood| |Camosun College, Victoria, BC, Canada| It has to be listened to. | |email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |phone: +1 250 370 4452 | Hermann Scherchen. | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
