I have an old ZEOS Pantera (P90) with a Phoenix 4.04 bios that I cannot
get to recognize my IDE hard drive (7752 cyl, 16 heads, 63 spt). Of course
Linux installs and runs just fine on it.
But, the BIOS fails to autodetect it, and therefore won't boot off the HD.
Using the correct parameters causes the bios to hang. It won't let me
enter more than 16 heads so I can't reduce the number of cylinders. I even
tried incorrect settings :)
Any advise? All I need is to get it to boot off the HD.

p.s. Glad to see monday night football appears to have an impact on the
list traffic. Wait a minute - what the hell am I doing in front of the
'puters..
