I have a 4gb transcend CF which serves as a hd in one of my 1200's. It has classic wb 3.1 installed and has the system/wb partition as the primary bootable partition.
On cold switch on it shows the purple wb screen, but if i then do a warm reset it then boots of the cf hd.
The 1200 is a 2b mobo wih Blizzad 1220 and 8mb ram and 3.0 roms.
Could this be a problem of 3.0 rom and 3.1 classic wb?
Is there a way around this to ensure wb boots from the cf hd from cold start?
I have encountered this with a number of different brand cards. I am not sure what causes it but i think in some cases the cards try to post too fast and just miss the boat.. Again its just a guess.
