[ILUG] Lilo - remapping drives

[Thomas Ribbrock]

Hi folks,

I'm trying to move my legacy Win 3.1 system off my main drives onto an
old 600MB external SCSI drive I have standing around, as I'd rather use
the space on the main drives for Linux.
However, I'm aware that WinDOS has quite some problem with not being on
the first drive of the system.
On another machine, I had a similar problem: WinDOS on hdb, Linux on hda
and lilo's "map-drive=..." parameters came in handy and worked just
fine. However, that was with an EIDE only system.
The machine I'm working on now is a SCSI-only PC (with the exception of
the CD-ROM, being hdc) with four drives: sda/sdb internal, sdc/sdd
external. sdd is the drive I'd like to move the two WinDOS partitions
to, so far unsuccessfully. Hence, my questions:

- Is drive mapping possible with SCSI at all like it is with EIDE?
- How do I find out which drive has which BIOS code? Does that work
  similar to EIDE, i.e. sda = 0x80, sdb = 0x81, etc. - and how does the
  CD-ROM (hdc) play into this?
- Is there anything I have to take into account with regard to making
  the WinDOS partition bootable or suchlike (been ages since I've been
  messing with that thing - if it wasn't for some old documents, I'd
  probably simply delete it... :-} )

I read through the lilo documentation in /usr/doc/lilo..., but to no
avail so far, therefore, I'd appreciate some insight or pointers to
more documentation.

Thanks in advance,

Thomas
