We have just received a Ciprico Rimfire controller and a Fujitsu 2382. Currently the system boots from a Xylogics 450/451 at address ee40. We also would like to load SunOs 4.0.3 on the new disk. Will SunOS recognize the Ciprico controller as the bootable device if we change the Xylogics to address ee48. How will munix recognize "rf" as a controller type ? Can we leave the Xylogics as primary bootable device and have the Rimfire as secondary in order to have two bootable operating systems ? Any ideas welcome. thanks Steve Jamieson Harris Semiconductor rutgers!soleil!jamieson (feed)
