   The dog I was chasing is: is the drive bootable, if so is the BIOS
having trouble finding it?
   I have no idea how to tell if a bios can boot from an added controller,
I assume the bios extension on the added controller card takes care of it.
   Is the drive bootable when on a mommy board controller?
