Comments/Problems:
The install went as flawlessly as on the IDE install I did earlier. The
issue I ran into upon rebooting was due to the installer being given the
SCSI device as /dev/sdb during installation but it reverting to /dev/sda
on boot (due to the CD-Rom apparently) causing a kernel panic since it
couldn't find root.
An easy fix was to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and change the reference to
/dev/sdb1 to /dev/sda1 (either before rebooting the first time or at the
Grub menu.) Also, an edit to /etc/fstab is required.
Other than that, an easy install and all hardware was recognized both during
installation as well as afterwards.
Thanks again,
