This problem is considered an oldies.

I had not found any solution for it as yet. I hope someone can
enlighten me with his/her solution.

I am using a SCSI-based system in MSDOS, Win95 and Linux environment,
and most of my hardware are SCSI.

Currently I am trying to recycle my old IDE drives in my hardware
cache (using them as backup media with removable racks)

How can I connect the IDE drives in Primary port without making them
as Boot Drive? (secondary port possible?)

In most case, if SCSI and IDE drives co-exist, IDE will take over as
Boot Drive. but I want the other way around this problem, how can i
achieve it?

Do you know how-to?

TIA

Regards,

Kevin Lai
