I'm trying to set up a computer with the following configuration: 16 IBM 120GB IDE drives: On-board VIA controller with 4 drives Two promise ATA100 controllers with 4 drives each One CMD649U controller with 4 drives Problem seems to be that the motherboard has addressed them on the PCI bus as follows: Promise (1) 0.0c.00 (ide[01]) Promise (2) 0.0d.00 (ide[23]) CMD649U 0.0f.00 (ide[45]) VIA 0.10.1 (ide[67]) This gives me the VIA controller, which that motherboard wants to boot from, as the last controllers, which messes up all installers I've tried (though that's only Redhat and SuSE). How can I force PCI 0.10.1 to be ide[01]? Thanks all Please cc: to me as I'm not on the list roy -- Roy Sigurd Karlsbakk, Datavaktmester Computers are like air conditioners.
