Hi, I just got SLS straight from Softlanding and am having a problem
installing it. I have two IDE hard drives (C=40Mb, D=50Mb). When I boot
from disk a1, it lists both /dev/hda and /dev/hdb when it lists all of the
other system stuff (serial ports, etc.). However, after putting in a2 and
running fdisk, fdisk only seems to recognize the first drive (at least,
that's all the p command prints out).
Can one install Linux on the second hard drive? Not only do I want to be
able to boot DOS/Windows from drive C, but I need the room on the larger
hard drive to fit base+X.
The FAQ file does not seem to describe this problem.
Any recommendations? Thanks!
