Unless it has changed, there is a boot parameter, hdx=ide-scsi (x=which drive it is) you can either type in or put in the append line in lilo.
Yes, certainly, I know that:-)
AFAIK, without this line all IDE drives SHOULD be detected and treated as IDE drives, not scsi emulated.
Yes, that's what I thought too. Back in my ages, before 8.0:-)
I just installed the 231 build of the kernel, and this version does work this way. HTH
Apart from the fact that (in my case) the 231 kernel behaved properly and did not make a SCSI device out of my innocent DVD drive ... just out of interest...: WHERE in hell is this append line now since everything is different in 8.0 ??? I was able to change it easily with YaST1 in the older releases ... but ... how does one edit this append line now (with 8.0)???
