hda=iscsi --what it means
I am having a IDE hard disk(Samsung).I installed Knoppix on my hard disk and started using it.
when I checked the lilo.conf it tried to pass a command line argument
hda=scsi,hdb=scsi
where hda is my hard disk and hdb is my cdrom.(I didn't made any changes to lilo.conf,The lilo.conf is automatically created during knoopix installation).
By passing those above mentioned parametes, I think it is trying to use my IDE diisk as SCSI. AM I CORRECT?.
Is it possible to use a IDE device as SCSI device by passing the parameters? .
I checked my demsg and found the following
