My system has been running great for quite a while with two IDE hard disks
and a Tandberg Streamer (SCSI ID 2) on an Adaptec 1542B. Now I've connected
a Fujitsu M2624 520MB SCSI disk to the 1542B and restarted the system.
Starting FDISKPM I had the 3rd disk clearly on display and (I think) set it to
be a logical drive. However, when FDISKPM asked me to shutdown and restart
the system upon exit, I was stupid enough not to follow this instruction.
Instead, I killed FDISKPM manually from a text window and did a few other
things (not related to the disk setup) first. Then I shut down.
When rebooting my system, OS/2 would not boot anymore, giving error messages
like that it cannot find 'E:\OS2\SYSTEM\COUNTRY.SYS' (E: is my OS/2 partition
on IDE drive 2), and it actually messes up my OS/2 file system. This happens
no matter what I do, with every possible SCSI ID, with or without the tape 
streamer being connected. I've even had to reinstall everything anew (several
times!), but the same thing happens whenever the SCSI disk is connected.

If it hadn't worked in the beginning, i could blame the disk or the drivers,
but I WAS able to boot with this disk connected at first and I DID have this
disk visible in FDISKPM.

What's wrong here? Please help, I'm desperate (I've spent 2 days and 2 nights
with hardly any sleep just trying - reinstalling - trying - re.... )

Any help will greatly be appreciated!
