Ah, now I understand what Christian actually meant. An installation on an IDE drive with no driver for the SCSI controller of the new system. But I think that shouldn't be an issue since we basically have a kernel that supports most controllers now - except for the one on the Blizzard accelerators that still needs to be merged - through modules on the initrd. In the worst case, you'd just have to rebuild the initrd first. Adrian -- .''`.
