Got another "go figure" with a Western Digitalis ..... On one box, I have to
set the drive as Master, on another, the *same* drive has to be set to Cable
Select, or else it won't boot. Other HD's on these same boxen do *not* have
this issue.
And then, just to top things, the up-till-now solid-as-a-rock IBM drives are
now flaky (the new 40-60 gig) ,.. damn!!
