I have installed the bootmanager and > nothing works :( Well, that depends on how you're set up. No BIOS will allow you to boot off anything but the first two disks in the system. So if you have 2 hard disks on your primary controller and one on your secodary controller, you won't be able to boot off anything on the secondary. If you could be more specific, I think I know what problem you're running up against and know how to fix it, but I need to know the error messages you're getting when y ou say "nothing works."
