I recently came upon an IDE drive, so I have been poking around at things to get it to boot off my scsi. I must say, Im sure there are plenty of new, users that get fairly disgusted trying to this to work. :( Anyway, does the NAMEBLOCK_WRITEBACK feature of biosboot work? (documented in /sys/i386/boot/biosboot/Makefile) I noticed it was commented out. I think it would be a really nice feature for 2.2 if it worked. If not, perhaps the BOOT_HD_BIAS variable should be mentioned in the handbook or somewhere else obvious. :) Just thought I'd bring it to everyones attention.. --Chris Csanady
