My tech helped me fix one problem (booting from the IDE vs SCSI --
turns out there was an option in BIOS I hadn't seen to tell the BIOS
which device to boot from.)
However, there's a more troubling and less easily fixed (afaik)
problem with the kernel: If I try to boot from the SMP kernel so I
can actually USE the second processor, it locks up trying to scan the
IDE bus. However, if I boot "linux-up" at the LILO prompt, it boots
just fine.

Does anyone know if the newer kernel solves this problem?
Thanks...
