Then the SuSE floppy boots. That's why it seems a little weird. On the other hand, the bios has provisions to boot from the CD-ROM, but even though I've set it that way, nothing in the drive (not any SuSE CD's anyway) will boot. Just one of life's little mysteries.
One of these days, though, I will probably wind up installing 6.4, just to see if it works as well on the SCSI drive as it does on IDE. It's rock solid (knock on wood).
I believe this is dependent on your particular BIOS on the MB. Sometimes making the CDROM the master device and the HD the slave will help. Or what I've had to do is put the HD and the CD on separate IDE channels. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- John Karns jkarns@csd.net
