I don't know whether windows is able to start at all if it's not sitting on the boot drive. As far as I know that's not possible. Correct me someone if I am wrong. Couldn't you make the system boot from SCSI, install lilo on the mbr of the SCSI drive and start Linux from there. Linux has no problems with it, you only need to correct lilo's view of the drives with the disk and bios options. Nils -- Plug-and-Play is really nice, unfortunately it only works 50% of the time.
