Previously: >Er, don't just wave dead chickens around. Examine your actual >configuration and *check* it. Heehee, I like that, dead chickens... I'm getting INTIMATELY acquanted with the entire actual configuration. I have unplugged and replugged everything at least once. I'm not sure I trust the cables, so I'm going to try to find some different ones. (Any suggestions for where and/or brand?) In the meantime, I have unplugged one of the drives and I'll plug it in with the internal cable to see what happens. (These users keep getting in my way and making me do other things around here!) >I forgot to ask about the CDROM; is this an IDE or SCSI CDROM? IDE. I'm thinking about getting an IDE drive to boot from. I'm not sure what that will gain me, as I even tried to configure everything with the internal 4GB on one of the adaptecs and an external case with three of the 36GB drives attached to the other adaptec. (Same result...) >Boot on a system that doesn't have a broken BIOS and write zeroes over >the first part of the disk. Got any spare systems? ;-) (Actually, I'll bring in my box from home...)
