Sure, since there's no FCODE in there (i386 board), it's unbootable anyway....

See /proc/scsi/scsi above. Exactly one SCSI, one IDE, plus the cdrom. > for a 7200 i assume the internal scsi > hard disk and a scsi CDROM, so you should have at least /dev/sda and > /dev/sdb no? Well I suppose it mistakes the cdrom for sdb; it probably shouldn't, since there is no second SCSI disk....
