Ok here goes:
I have an IBM 30Gig ATA./100 drive on an Asus A7V MB - below is my
partition file from the system.
Problem #1: During install I passed the ide parms for the ATA/100 drive
and all installed well. I installed the lilo bootloader on /dev/hde6
(root) partition and edited the lilo.conf with the necessary append
info. I am using BootMagic 2.0 to boot the system, but I only get LI
during start, so I have to use the bootdisk and pass the ide parms EVERY
boot up . . . I don't care so much about booting from the bootdisk, but I
hate having to type the ide parms everytime I want to boot LM
7.2!!!!! Ideally I would like to boot from the HD using BootMagic and NOT
have to type the ide parms everytime.
Problem #2: When I boot from the floppy, I tried to add the ide parms in
the append line, but it is ignored during boot unless I manually type them
in . . . and I can't get Aurora to start when I boot from the floppy either
(with vga=788 added on the lilo.conf on the floppy)
Any help would be gratefully appreciated!!
Thanks up front!
