Am I overlooking the > obvious somewhere? A clean install is just not practical on this box. I don't know if you are overlooking anything...but have a suggestion that may get you around the issue.

Of course, at that time the drive will be a "scsi" device. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
