Hi Henrick

Would this idea work?

Since I do not have any ISA card to put the DOC into, I would
put the DOC in the separate socket, which would have the pin
that leads to the CS (chip select) pin on the DOC connected
to the switch.
During the BIOS boot I would turn this switch off, so that
(hopefully!) the DOC would not be found (no grub code executed).
After the lilo boot prompt appears (from the HD) I would turn
this to ON and (hopefully) the Linux would find the DOC.

Comments?

Regards,
Mateo
