So I got a new hard drive and thought I'd install 9.1 on it. The problem is, I 
can't get my bios to see is as either master or slave. I skipped the 
autodetection and was able to install 9.1 on it, but I guess bios doesn't see 
the drive still and it won't boot into it. I tried to create a boot floppy 
but that gives me an error and prompts for a system disk.

I thought maybe I had to format the HD (Seagate) first, so I tried to get a 
dos image, but most of those are .exe and I don't have Windoze. The one 
non-.exe image I found was in German and when I tried to run fdisk it 
returned some error.

If I run the new HD as slave, it won't boot the old HD.

I went to Seagate's site and tried to get their DiscWizard, but their bootable 
floppy is--you guessed it--an .exe.

I have 9.1 on my old hd, but this is really annoying.

The 9.1 install was sweet, and KDE is actually pretty fast on my machine. And 
fonts are purty!!

Can you offer some pointers for this [EMAIL PROTECTED]
