Hi, I tried installing Linux over an external HDD. First I tried with Fedora core 2 and its diskdruid didnt support the USB HDD. Then I used RH 8.0, with its fdisk, I was able to partition the HDD and write the bootloader(GRUB) into the MBR of the same external HDD. It was booting perfectly also. But at a stage of booting it showed some resouce conflict and finally the message
hda: CHS <value>/<value>/<value> from BIOS ignored. The values were some numeric ones and I dont remember them exactly. And in my BIOS there is no option to disable my internal HDD, and as it is a laptop, I cant pullout its cord also. What is the problem? What is the solution for that?? Please do help!! -- With regards, Jagadeesh Bhaskar P R&D Engineer HCL Infosystems Ltd Pondicherry INDIA - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
