Hi...again... no, I haven't tried that yet...I'm back in windows...right now... I will try it tommorrow, and let you know. Thanks for sticking with me...here.
in order to boot to the scsi drive i have to unplug (ide drive)... then reset the bios on reboot...then if i want to reboot back onto the linux drive, I have to plug it back in...and rest the bios on reboot... it's a bummer...man, i hope you can help me get this working right.
