hi!i own an ibm ps/2 8580 with two 300 mb esdi harddisks, which are attached to an esdi adapter. maybe this causes a failure at the partition check with following messages:partition check: ps/2 esdi: normal esdi adapter found in slot 8 ps/2 esdi: dma arbitration level : 5 ps/2 esdi: hard reset ... ps/2 esdi: attention error. interrupt status : 2f ps/2 esdi: status: 00 ps/2 esdi: reset interrupt after 196 jiffies: 1.96 sec ps/2 esdi: drive 0 ps/2 esdi: ps2esdi_out_command timed out (1) the partition of drive c: (drive 0?) is fat16 the partition of drive d: is dos extendedthe partition option: ed=cyl,head,sec won't change these boot failure messages.(boot: linux ed=cyl,head,sec ?!) many thanks!
