help! I'm STILL trying to install a kernel on my new machine, Iwill
XA-100 mbd., AMD K6-2 300 CPU, Samsung hard drive on primary IDE, 32M RAM, 
32X CD-ROM on sec. there IS a bug report that says with both IDE's enabled
status could be wrong. I think there's more to this problem, because 
even when I disble the secondary it still can't find the primary. should
I try to just ignore the probe and brute-force it through CLI? I'm
willing to experiment; are there any known settings (AMI BIOS, by the
way) that could prevent it from seeing the IRQ? this one's got me
rattled, because the SAME MACHINE performs flawlessly on both Win95
(incl. USB) and WIN NT 4; so what the dickens is left??? please let
me know ANYTHING you think is worth trying!  - - Jeff

 Hmm, could you try moving the CD-ROM from the secondary to the
 primary and then try both with and without the secondary controller
 enabled?
