I had a similar problem with a cdrom being recognised as hd2 instead of hd1. The only HDD is the master on the first ide (hd0) and the cdrom master on the the second. I expected the cdrom to be hd1, but it wasn't. Phil Philip Charles; 39a Paterson St., Abbotsford, New Zealand; +64 3 4882818 Mobile 025 267 9420. I sell GNU/Linux CDs. See http://www.copyleft.co.nz
