No, we don't use dangerously dedicated since the word "dangerous" was in
it. Figured it might not be a good thing =) Thanks though.

:The very last example, just before the SEE ALSO section for the

I had the exact same problem when I had 'SCSI Bios' enabled on my Adaptec 2940.
Turned it off and that stopped. Not sure what the problem is, but I know that is

I have an N440BX motherboard that, when using console redirection (so the
BIOS messages and such come over the serial port), displays the following:
BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.01
Console: internal video/keyboard
BIOS drive A: is disk0
BIOS drive C: is disk1
BIOS 635kB/523200kB available me
