After the install does the newfs for the file systems and asked me to reboot from the HD, I get an error message: Read Error, when attempting to boot from the HD. What are some possible causes for this. I have gotten this on two identical drives (Maxtor 71260AT) 1.2 GB IDE Drives. ============================================================================ David Schnardthorst System Administrator * Phone: (314)838-6839 Stryder Communications, Inc. * Fax: (314)838-8527 869 St. Francois * E-Mail: ds3721@strydr.com Florissant, MO 63031 * URL: http://www.strydr.com ============================================================================
