Added HD, now devices are shifted - how to? (resolved)
First thing: Knoppix v3.3 HD Install.
Background:
-=- Previous device setup...
/dev/hda1 - Linux HD OS - Primary Master
/dev/hda2 - Dos partition
/dev/hda3 - Linux Swap
/dev/hdb - DVD device - Primary Slave
/dev/hdc - CDRW device - Secondary Master
-=- After adding new hard drive, this is the new configuration...
/dev/hda1 - Linux HD OS - Primary Master
/dev/hda2 - Dos partition
/dev/hda3 - Linux Swap
/dev/hdb - DVD device - Primary Slave
/dev/hdc1 - DOS / VFAT Win98 HD OS - Secondary Master
/dev/hdd - CDRW device - Secondary Slave
From what I can tell, all of my device pointers point to cdrom1 as the CDRW device, how do I get /dev/hdc to point to /dev/hdd now, as far as cdrom1 is concerned, I think cdaudio device points to the same thing as well.
As a side note: I did figure out how to install Win98 *AFTER* installing Knoppix, with a two drive system, and Windows didn't touch my Knoppix drive.
I the "new configuration" I have listed above, I simply pulled the power connector to the Primary Master (Linux) Hard Drive, Installed Win98 from setup, and when I finished getting Win98 configured, I replaced the power on the Linux Hard Drive - I use the BIOS boot order to determine which OS I am booting. Technically, I don't ever plan on booting Win98, I plan on just using it for Wine to use, and my pain in the rump DOS program.
Thanks for any assistance on getting my devices back to where they are now,
Cuddles
