[HLUG] Herefordshire Digest, Vol 1202, Issue 1

[Will Price]

As far as I'm aware it fine. I just unplug the HD at install and it all goes
well. I plug it in after install and it works fine. I just don't want to do
this every time I install a new distro (as I test them out quite
frequently). How do I change the IDE control (its a SATA drive by the way).
Cheers
