One last hard drive installation problem.
I successfully completed the installation, but my computer won't boot from HD. I've tried all different HD options (HDD0,1,2,3) and it stops at "verifying something pool" (sorry can't remember and comps in other room).
Is there something else I need to do to make it boot from HD ?

sounds like it cant load the boot loader (lilo)
it seems some people (including myself ) have had an issue with the drives getting messed up
im assuming drive geometry is messed up on your system
go to manufactuer (of the drive western-digital etc...) get thier tools diskete (all of them have such tools0
fix your drive by writing zeros to it completly....and fixing as well....
then use different partition soft to config your drive partition magic acronis etc.....
