Thanks very much. I was afraid of something like that!

Does anyone know if it is possible to boot from a SCSI CD-ROM? I have a
SCSI burner that might work better, but I'm not sure how to get it to be

recognized by the BIOS.

Upon clicking ctrl-alt F3 I get:
 * not found

 * Databook TCIC-2 probe:
 * not found
then on line 19 I get:
 * symlink /tmp/stage2 failed

Upon clicking ctrl-alt F4 I get:
on line 18:
 <4> ATAPI device hdd:
 <4> Error:unit Attention -- (Sense key=0x06)
 <4>Power on, reset or bus device reset occurred -- (asc=0x29,
ascq=0x00)

Does this help anyone figure out if there is any way short of a new
drive?

Thanks!
