I always thought this means the speed of the IDE device as in 33, 66, 100,
133, etc. It's not referring to the speed of the motherboard's Front Side
Bus. In other words, you can ignore it since you have all SCSI drives.

Subject: Q: Strange Kernal Comment at boot... Please Help!
Can anyone suggest where I can go to get this resolved?
Is pay
phone support the only option? I'd rather resolve this over E-mail if
possible.
Thanks in advance!
