Alright I have a friend who is trying on Phong's guide, using the tomsrtbt disk. Things were going fine until fdisk wouldn't see his SCSI hard drive. He has an HP Vectra 5/75 with an AMD pcscsi card that he hooked up his drive to.

He's tried 'fdisk /dev/sda' and every other /dev/sd* combination you can think of.

I didn't see any mention of scsi in Tom's FAQ. Does it support SCSI hard drives?

edit: perhaps I should have forked this into a new thread. :p

another edit: I had previously installed debian onto this box, which is still there, so the disk is working etc.

I found that message in the tomsrtbt mailling list archives. I've sent it to my amigo and we'll see if he can change whatever setting Tom was referring to.

Meh Tom suggested getting the patches/add-ons for his disk. I'm leaving it up to my compadres to figure it out.
