He says he has them loaded, then it will go "hdg lost interrupt" three times, then list hdparams three times, then it goes through the CD-ROMS just fine. It does everything else okay, but occassionaly will say "hdg interrupt lost" (goes through hdh, hde, hdg). Starts to boot, but encounters that problem IDE_DMA proc: chipset supported IDE_DMA_ lost IRQ func only: 13 lost hdg, lost interrupt hdg 0 bytes in fifo. -- Wielder of the mighty +1 LARTsaber of Unsubscribe Instructions At End of Message, the +3 Clue-by-Four of No Attachments to a Mailing List, and the -4 Shield of No Spell Checker http://joseph-a-nagy-jr.homelinux.org -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
