The box was shipped to me this way.. i'm no a hardware expert to know
the IDE
specs. As far as i know, it work for Windows (no flames) which i have been using
for long. Suddenly if some one says that the PC is mis-configured...
OK, i went to net and got this page
(http://www.mit.edu/afs/sipb.mit.edu/project/linux/docs/faq/ATAPI-FAQ) there
also they say it should be MASTER. Problem is not with me. The vendor didn't
follow the specs. PC never followd specs i think ;)
Some one please put this in an FAQ (if it is not already said) to avoid any
future problem?
thanks,
