hi....I run a dual hard disk system with a PCI controller.  When my system
boots up and i run the sysinstall utility, the system doesnt recoginze any
of my dos partitions. on my first drive and the slave drive.  when i boot
with the GENERIC kernel configuration the same even occurs.  However, when
i boot with the boot floppy it recognizes both hard drives...what may be
the problem ???

thanx
