Re: Problem booting from SCSI drive...

[Paul Armor]

Hmmm, firstly, this is a SCSI drive, so I have no BIOS control.  I'm most
confused by my ability to boot from a floppy, but with the same configs, I
can't boot from the SCSI disk... the SCSI disk has FreeBSD, and I'm
chainloading /boot/loader from the SCSI disk.  Any other ideas?
Thanks!
Paul
