[Gllug] Booting from SCSI CD

[Jackson, Harry]

I have an LSI Logic SCSI card and for the first time I need to boot off it
(kernel panic, need to use linuxcare cd). I have tried to set it up to do
this but with no joy whatsoever. 

I have looked in the BIOS for the card itself and noticed that it has a boot
option but it is greyed out. Help tells me that I can use it for booting but
I have no idea how to go about changing the options to make it work . I have
tried quite a few options and no joy. Is there something I am missing as I
just thought that it would be a BIOS change. 

My CD is on chain 0. I have put it there to be able to boot from it as
instruced in the help for the card. 

Harry
