Mixing IDE and SCSI drives with LILO is very messy.  Once I finally got LILO to 
boot from my SCSI I have been afraid to change anything.  But after about six 
hours of experimentation I am now running GRUB and find it easy to switch 
between the two. (Unthinkable concept yesterday).  Thanks for the motivation, 
Ian :)

Using the information in README.CD, which is very easy to follow, I now have a 
SCSI bootable Xen VMM.  Another success!

Ahhh, now custom kernels...

Thanks again,
Mike Wright
