I did a full install of 5.2 on IDE and still have the generic kernel. Fbsd sees my scsi card just fine :) (Adaptec 29160LP)+ IBM eServer X305 ..Problem is, that when I fire up the machine with the scsi drive attached, it tries to boot off of that instead of the IDE drive...Well that drive still contains another *BSD ... I have tried to setup the IBM BIOS to boot off of DISK0 or DISK1 and nothing works.... What can I do so that I can boot off the IDE with the SCSI drive attached!? ..from there, I can slice/dice and dump/restore and finish my conversion over to the SCSI drive... Any thoughts? - Thanks! -JDB
