Internal Drive Does Disappears on Dual 867

[gelbin]

hey.
i rearranged my drives in my mirror drive dual 867 and the drive that is on the second ata bus does not mount. well, it mounted the first time i booted, then did not. then i unplugged the ata and replugged, and it mounted. then i restarted and it was gone again...

thoughts? ideas? it is set to 'cable'.

thanks.
a bunch.

I had a similar problem with my two drives on my sawtooth G4 a little while ago....

I fixed my problem by reversing the master/slave on both drives.
Weird i know, but it worked.

Drive Utility

If you're running under OS 9x then try running Drive Utility and see the drive has been detected but just not mounted. If so, mount it manually and set in the options for it to mount on startup.
