Comment 23 for bug 48412

Curtis,

Sorry for not responding earlier. Been quite busy.
You are probably right that these are two separate issues.
ad 1) I will check you described asap and post the results here
ad 2) bug 554582 was mine to start with. I will follow up on that one too where possible

Just for a laugh: re-installing XP on a separate partition on same pc took me several tries (like 12) before I found out that all versions of the Promise driver (2001-2004 vintage, to be provided on a floppy after booting from CD) were incorrectly branded 'CHICAGO', which was Win95 family, instead of 'WindowsNT' making the installer fail silently loading it and thus not see any hard disk at all... :-)

cheers
Tom
