Anybody successfully using more than one IDE HD on the primary IDE channel
of an Ultra5?  I'd like to setup a dual-boot config (e.g., "boot linux" or
"boot" (for solaris) in the boot ROM), but dont know if Sun supports more
than one drive per IDE cable.

Even if they dont support it, will it *work* ?

Also, anybody know where I can get a HD mounting bracket for an U5?  Right
now I had to mount my HD above the floppy drive where the PC card reader
would normally go.  (and man, why'd they waste all the space under the
CD-ROM drive?)
