I switched to irq 10 and now it will boot fdisk -i doesn't want to work though: root> fdisk -i rsd0 fdisk: Can't get file status of rsd0 also, since putting in the adaptec card it won't boot off of floppy ( i thought i would just boot off of floppy and install new system on this new disk). I can take the scsi card out (adaptec) and it will boot from floppy. I presume there is some setting I have yet to discover that is doing this. dave
