Dear Techies,
I have installed a TOSHIBA MK1016GAP in my 5501 soekris, and I can boot
from it. Right now it mostly does not boot straight into my linux after
getting powered up. The reason is that the bios does not detect the
harddisk at first boot (see below, [1]). I have to be on the serial
console, ctrl+p, and reboot it, now it detects the drive and everything
is fine. I know its a slow drive, but is there a way around it?
Cheers,
/\/ikolaj
