I have now been able to boot the cloned scsiWarp with the ide 40gb drive powered on. Not only that, but I played with some of the same networking files that got the P2 dns working, and I have dns working fine on scsiWarp as well!!! It uses the dani drivers. Side question: I have Opera installed as an evaluation copy, and can't find a way to import bookmarks from Mozilla or Netscape.... in fact, from anywhere. Can it be done? I will attach an fdisk /query:all done from the scsiWarp partition. I had to hide several partitions to boot scsiWarp. So the only real remaining problem is to create a set of install diskettes that will boot up with both hard drives (scsi 160 and 40gb ide) attached, properly see the ide drive layout, be able to create an installable ide partition, and start an install from cdrom.

OK, I'll probably work on this tomorrow. But, now I think it might be better to build them with the IBM drivers, since that is what seems to be required when one tries to re-install from the original IBM Warp cdrom. Actually, you already have the listings of disk 1 and disk 2, with the config.sys and snoop.lst listings off disk 1. I saw "loading aicu160.add" go by prior to it hanging while showing "loading ibm1s506.add". > >>(I thought everybody uses the dani drivers these days)? > >>So, all it has to be is a bootable primary partition anywhere on any >>drive? > > Nope.

Further suppose I want to be able to boot scsiWarp or WinXp without either seeing the other, and boot Warp1vol to be able to see scsiWarp, but not WinXP? I think that's what I'd like to end up with. --=_0_55089_1055820609 Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="QUERYALL.LST" Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"; name="QUERYALL.LST" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Drive Name Partition Vtype FStype Status Start Size 1 0000003f : 1 17 4 0 4000 1 007d047e : 1 0a 2 4000 7 1 ideWarp C: 2 07 1 4008 1992 1 00bb86bd : 3 00 0 6000 32161 **BIOS:8032MB 2 0000003f : 1 0a 2 0 7 2 00003ec1 : 1 14 0 7 15 2 Warp1vol : 2 17 1 23 737 2 scsiWarp D: 2 07 1 760 1506 2 0046d820 E: 2 06 0 2267 1466 2 0074af1b F: 2 06 0 3733 1506 2 00a3bfdb G: 2 06 0 5240 1459 2 00d15815 H: 2 04 0 6699 15 2 00d1d597 I: 2 04 0 6714 15 2 00d25319 J: 2 04 0 6730 15 2 00d2d09b K: 2 07 0 6746 2000 **BIOS:8032MB --=_0_55089_1055820609-- ===================================================== To unsubscribe from this list, send an email message to "steward@scoug.com".
