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......
