(Hangs the system HARD every time) HW: Supermicro 6010H 1U Server w/ 2x P3-9.3mhz, 2Gb RAM, 2x 36G SCSI drives, on-board AIC-7899 SCSI, ATAPI CDROM as Master on on 2nd IDE, floppy. SW: SuSE 8.1 Enterprise OpenExchange Server install disk. Things I've tried during the inital boot to pass to the kernal: idex=noprobe hdx=none idex=noprobe, hdx=none noprobe --noprobe hda=noprobe hdb=noprobe hda=noprobe, hdb=noprobe ide0=noprobe hdx=none ide0=noprobe, hdx=none
