Not that I know of - it usually means that the OS doesn't have drivers
for, or hasn't properly detected, the IDE controller. I haven't been
able to get my preinstalled Win2k system to boot on the PCI bus yet
(though I haven't tried much yet), and an attempt to install a fresh
Win2k system with PCI enabled yesterday got just over halfway through
the hardware probe and then moved no further (well, in the three hours
or so that I ran it).
I also tried installing NT4, but it failed before getting to any
INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE messages - the first-stage installer, after
detecting the IDE controller, failed to see any drives connected to the
controller.
Thanks
Leigh
