Nice catch. I did not think about this ...
But how to deal with this if you do an initial installation of Linux
as the second OS?
In my case I installed Windows XP on the first two IDEs with a device
driver from diskette in order for Windows XP to see the Promise-Chip.
Fedore Core 1 came on as the second OS and initially the HDDs were
named hde, hdf, hdg, hdh.
I think I can remap the HDDs the way you suggest, but this would not
help in initial installations, does it?
bis dahin - kind regards
