If you are to boot from this drive, your BIOS must be enabled on the SCSI controller. To set the ID on a barracuda (newer ones, anyway), there are two sets of ID jumpers. If facing the drive from the back, you have pins like so: === :: /\ 8

Hello Sanjeev, I might be wrong, I am not sure about the modern controllers (I am used to old ways :)) ), but not long ago if the controller did not found hard disc on ID "0" or "1" it simply did not load the BIOS and the system could not boot :)). Best regards "Jersey" -- From: S

Jerry, Sorry, but this sounds wrong. SCSI ID can go from 0 to 7 (or 0 to 15, depending on the bus). The decision of which one to boot from, or what file to load, is up to the BIOS or PROM or IPL or whatever. Regards, - Original Message - From: Jerzy Miszczyk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: 'Er

Hello Eric, You do not "slave" the SCSI drives. Your controller looks for SCSI ID "0" or "1" and boots from either of them. You can togle between those two ID's if you have two drives. Best regards "Jersey" -- From: Erik Peter P. Abella[SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 01,

how to slave scsi drives?

2000-05-02 Thread Erik Peter P. Abella
Hello All, I'm trying to migrate my current system on ST34520LW (Seagate) on to a Barracuda that I don't know how to slave. I don't have this problem with IDE hardisks because toggling the drive status from slave to master is done simply by transferring a single jumper. On my Barracuda, I see some
