Ive got my csppc back from JJ B in France and alls working :-D
I have already partitioned the hard disk and installed OS3.9. Alls ok there.

Now in order to install OS4 I need a cdrom connected to the mobo ide port as my other cdrom is connected to the fastlane.

My cdrom on the ide port is set as master on the drive itself and is on the master plug of the ide cable but the machine will not boot at all.

With nothing plugged into the ide port i can boot into OS3.9 :-?

The cd rom works OK

I'm now stuck as to what to do :crazy:

Im using a scsi harddrive on my cyberstorm card, there is only a cd rom on the ide port

The machine will not boot to os3.9 or os4, without the cd rom connected i can boot to os3.9 and from the os4 floppy :getmad:

Ive just managed to get a Kickstart screen with the cdrom connected BUT my os3.9 harddrive IS connected and should have booted from that.

Ok thanks guys, it looks like I'm going to have to try another cd drive.
