Hi all:
OK I must be missing something here.
I just got new PIII/450 on a Gigabyte GA-6BXC motherboard. I dropped in
my Adapted 2940 UW card and installed a removable drive rack for my HD
with RedHat 5.2 on it. It will not even attempt to boot off the SCSI. It
is obviosly a bios thing because this exact same setup works fine from a
couple of other computers I have. If I disable the IDE drive w/Winblows
'98 on it I get a message that no boot media was found. The Adaptec
bios appear to load just fome and I set it up to load from that drive
(#2) and seems to sees it OK.
Has anyone had this type of problem? Am I going to be stuck booting from
a floppy -- ugly but workable.
Peace,
Eric
