Hi,
I've tried installing Suse on my machine but it can't see the hard disk (SATA, Promise RAID controller) and understand that only Kernel 2.6 supports this. Since I can't install Linux I can't compile a new Kernel to see the disk drive (I've never compiled a Kernel before so would all be a bit of a learning curve anyway).
I've considered buying a second EIDE hard disk and using this for Linux instead but still want to be able to boot into WinXP/2000 (I'm a developer and need all 3 systems) on the SATA drive. Can I do this by (say) creating a boot CD-ROM for Suse to load from, or somehow installing a boot loader on the EIDE drive that boots to the SATA drive. How would I go about doing this?
