depends on the system. in many cases yes it's true, in some it is not. your best bet is to just plug it in 'as-is', be sure your BIOS is set to boot from the SCSI device first and see if it works. if it does, great, if not then you will probably want to boot from floppy, and install a boot loader either grub or lilo into the MBR of the IDE disk for booting(this won't affect the partitions on the IDE disk). you can mount NTFS filesystems on linux though I personally would not except in an emergency, the driver for NTFS has a long history of causing damage to NTFS filesystems though recently I've read it's gotten better. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
