Does it check the BIOS to determine this (i.e. boot drive 0,1,etc) and can the BIOS give a message that the boot blocks misinterpret? Thanks in advance. ------_=_NextPart_001_01BF3D2A.E1BB171E Content-Type: text/html <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2//EN"> <HTML> <HEAD> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=us-ascii"> <META NAME="Generator" CONTENT="MS Exchange Server version 5.5.2448.0"> <TITLE>Boot loader</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Could anyone tell me what determines which drive/slice/etc</FONT> <BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">the boot loader will chose to boot off of, apart from the /boot.config</FONT> <BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">file, which it can't seem to find?
