I asked the following question at Abit support afew days ago:
Can the >selection be made to boot from (either a SCSI or an IDE drive in the BH6 >BIOS?
And received the following reply just today:
BH6 will support either SCSI or IDE HDD. The bootable disk is desided by the jumper setting in the HDD; thus, it could not be chosed in the BIOS setting.
Now I'm confused....I thought this selection was made in mb Bios. I think abit is saying its made in SCSI host Bios.?
The following was provided by ZP from the BH6 manuel:
3-12 Chapter 3
When the computer boots up, it can load the operating system from floppy drive A:, hard disk drive C:, SCSI disk drive or CD-ROM. There are many options for the boot sequence:
A, C, SCSI C, A, SCSI C, CD-ROM, A CD-ROM, C, A D, A, SCSI ( At least 2 IDE HDD can be used ) {{???}} E, A, SCSI ( At least 3 IDE HDD can be used ) F, A, SCSI ( At least 4 IDE HDD can be used ) SCSI, A, C SCSI, C, A A, SCSI, C LS/ZIP, C
Is there a contradiction here or (more likely) am I misunderstanding their reply?
I thought I had this question/answer under my belt already......
