Hello, do you have an SCSi controller which can be used to boot from ? (BIOS extension on SCSI board, BIOS support, etc....)
Do you need the IDE disks to boot. You can simple remove the IDE entries in the first BIOS page to "NONE", "NONE", ... etc The the system has to boot from SCSI ! GRUB cannot see the IDE disks either, but the running Linux can access them (the IDE controller must not be disabled !). What do you have for a computer. The SCSI/IDE boot sequence is very very old ... Do you use an externel IDE adapter card (not onboard) ? ... Bye P.
