<div>Hi, Greg</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I'm using SCSI as well, and its an older system. IBM PC Server
315 </div>
<div>So after reading min system requirements. I have Mandrake 7.0
laying around here so I think I'll install it on this system. Its an
Pentuim Pro 200Mhz (1) 128mb ram and a 4mb Video Card. So I think the
latest and greatest will not work anyway. Also this system will have
only Linux on it so I need not worry about Lilo, but was just
interested as to the groups opinion. I will be installing Linux on a
few systems, some older and some newer. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>By the way, do you think SuSE 6.1 Full retail version will do ok
on a Pentium 1 mmx 200Mhz? 4mb video 128+ ram? I have SuSE sitting
around as well. Oh...where can you get GOOD scsi drives here locally
WNY reasonable! SCSI-3. I need one more Seagate ST34371N to complete
this system. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks, tHecActUsKid<br>

.... I've had nothing but trouble with grub and SCSI partitions. <br>
Maybe I'm too old and inflexible, but the configuration was very picky <br>
and arcane to my mind. I tried it w/ Mandrake and Gentoo and Slackware,
<br>
and scrapped it as far too unfriendly and difficult to set up. Somehow,
<br>
saving and exiting vim and typing "lilo -v" doesn't seem very hard at <br>
all. I have had XP pro booting as an option ... about 2 years ago ... <br>
from lilo, and I didn't have any troubles. I usually have 3 kernels, <br>
plus at least one Windows partition going at any given moment. I
suspect <br>
it's alot like which word processor you like. The one you learned first
<br>
and most thoroughly is always the best ... simply because!<br>
BIG CAVEAT!! I've ONLY used grub on pure SCSI systems, never IDE. As <br>
grub seems more "slanted" to IDE, it may be completely different for
that.<br>
J!
ust an old Slackware (since '94!) curmuddgeon's gripe. No flame war <br>
intended! ;-) If lilo failed me and grub worked, I'd change in a
heartbeat!<br>
