Hi everybody,

The problem is not directly with obsd installed on scsi disk (fujitsu, mas3735np, 73.4gb, 15,000rpm). Initially, the only system installed on it was Win XP Pro, but it was infected and I installed obsd 3.6 over it, also as a single OS on the whole disk, with the only purpose - to re-format the whole disk with the format system different from NTFS. Installed without problems. It worked. Immediately after that I tried to do a clean install of Win XP from setup floppies and CD, but the disk became invisible to setup though it was visible to the scsi controller. I disconnected the disk from the computer (HP workstation xw8000) and connected it to the IBM computer with Win XP installed on it. The disk was visible to the OS and I formatted it with NTFS. It was still invisible to HP. Then I again connected it to the IBM and installed Win XP on it successfully. But it was nevertheless still invisible to HP. I supposed that OBSD somehow changed HP Setup settings and set Setup settings to default. After that HP started saying "ntldr is missing". I created boot floppy to fix ntldr problem as it is recommended on MS site, but it didn't help. The disk is still invisible.
Does somebody have any idea what has happened and how it could be fixed?

Thanks for your help.
Valery
