Ok, here goes:  Asus A7V MB, IBM 30 Gig on Promise ATA controller, IBM 20 
Gig on onboard controller.
Everything boots from the Promise controller (ATA/100) including BootMagic.

LM 7.2 installed flawlessly on the /dev/hde device (same one) but when I do 
lilo -v , I get a Warning: /dev/hde is not on the first disk.  The 
documentation says:  "The specified partition is probably not on the first 
disk.  LILO's boot secotr canonly be booted from the first disk unless some 
special boot manager is used."

I'm assuming the "spacial boot manager" would be BootMagic - which finds 
the Linux partition and tries to boot it - in which I only get LI.

How do I force Linux to NOT see the /dev/hde as the second drive but as the 
first - and visa-versa for the /dev/hda?

Help!

Thx,
Robert Fox
