i installed 2.2.6 on a test system that has 3 scsi drives and a ide hd and an ide cdrom. the first 2 drives are 340M quantum and i used one for / and one for /var the other drive is a seagate 1080 M scsi and i installed /usr and swap there. i am getting a bios limit error when trying to boot up off of the first 340 meg drive. i have tried unplugging the power cable of the 2 other drives to see if it can even attempt to boot but keep getting Error C:1456 > 1023 (bios limit) this is perplexing me since the first drive is only 340 Meg and well below the 528 Meg limit or whatever. I have installed osbs on the ide hd so i can boot from the different drives but it always gives me this error when i try and boot the first drive and the other drives are not bootable ( of course). i tried to send this to the list but i guess it didnt make it thru i didnt see it show up.
