Please _do not_ hijack a thread. You end breaking up the continuity of the message thread. You did this by simply/lazily hitting reply to an email, changing the subject line and body content and sending the message as though it is new. If you don't feel like typing the list email address in to a new message try adding the list address to your address book. In answer to your question, no. When you boot from cdrom/DVD you are booting from a disk that never changes content and doesn't depend on a particular drive to work. The only reason for the HD to stop working is if you changed to a different type of controller that uses different drivers. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
