I have two essentially identical scsi controllers that I would like to
use in the same box. The only problem is that linux and my bios see the
cards in the opposite order so if I have hard drives on both
controllers, linux sets up to boot off of one drive, but my bios tries
to boot from the
Has anyone else had problems with Mandrake 6.0 detecting ECP/EPP parallel

Dear friends:
Could someone who has actually downloaded Mandrake 6.1 (I emphasize 6.1)
by FTP please recommend to me where I can find an authoritative
bootnet.img that will connect me to an FTP site. I tried half a dozen

Any files that have been updated should be updated on there
I am running Mandrake 6.0-1. I have a AT-2450 network card. All worked fine
until I changed the card to a 3C905B. I could not make that card work, so I
put back in the AT-2450. Now when I boot the card fails. I have to manually
load the module, then run netcfg to activate it. I did a modprobe -c

Hi Alann
You don't want to bridge with the linux machine. You don't even need to route,
especially not if you don't want the rest of your network to be able to talk to
the SGI's. All you need to have is one nic on the SGI subnet and the other on
the rest of the network. Each card with
