Subject:	SCOUG-Help: Problems installing eCS 1.2 on new P4 with SATA drive

I thought I had mentioned how the drives are set up?

The Plextor CD/RW is on the secondary IDE cable,
jumpered as master.

The CD-ROM drive (Lite-On) where the eCS CD-ROM is,
is on the primary cable, jumpered as slave.

The SATA drive as I understand it does not use
jumpers.
