Thanks for the rapid response. I'm lucky it booted for this machine is a triple boot with 2000/Linux/FreeBSD and Linux flipped out when I tried to do a regular boot with LILO and seemed like a normal boot but all of a sudden it dove straight for the drive hanging on the Promise controller and booted that!! The drive hanging on the Promise card is an Linux OS. I don't know how in the hell it got that confused so I looked at the drive hanging on cables coming out of my machine, saw it was jumped as a "master" and figured that had to be the problem so I jumped it as a "slave" on the Promise card (now it's /dev/ad5) AND LINUX STILL BOOTED IT off the Promise controller.... Windows 2000 never saw the drive hanging off the Promise controller either. Only FreeBSD was able to tackle the drive successfully. -- Bill Schoolcraft PO Box 210076 San Francisco,CA 94121 http://billschoolcraft.com "We can find no wealth above a healthy body and a happy heart." _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
