Nice catch. I did not think about this ... But how to deal with this if you do an initial installation of Linux as the second OS? In my case I installed Windows XP on the first two IDEs with a device driver from diskette in order for Windows XP to see the Promise-Chip. Fedore Core 1 came on as the second OS and initially the HDDs were named hde, hdf, hdg, hdh. I think I can remap the HDDs the way you suggest, but this would not help in initial installations, does it? bis dahin - kind regards Martin Mewes -- http://webmin.mamemu.de/ Official Webmin/Usermin Translation Co-Ordinator 2003/2004 Proud Forte Agent 2.0 Beta Tester
