Re: End of the line?

Jan: Thanks for the info. But are you using a Promise Ultra66 or and Ultra33? Does the Promise card pre-boot screen show the card and drives are in UDMA mode 4? Mine does, but I still do not think it is carrying over to Linux since if I shut off UDMA66 with the IBM program, put a regular 40
