Actually I have been doing this for years as well. Put a complete root filesystem on the IDE drive for disaster recovery, and then selective backups to it as needed. I usually disable the drive in the BIOS then, letting the system boot SCSI, and the *BSD kernel probes the IDE drive and autoconfigures it after boot, so it's still accessible when the system is up. > From: Randy Bush [mailto:randy@psg.com] > Sent: Thursday, June 14, 2001 8:47 PM > > i have a number of boxes with fast scsi striped for > performance and then a > very large cheap slow ide for quick backup.
