Edit the boot loader configuration file for SCSI startup.
If you are using SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 10, check the /boot/
grub/menu.lst file instead of the /etc/grub.conf file.
The detailed procedure is explained in steps 7 to 11.
Separate examples are provided for when the boot loader is LILO, when

the boot loader is GRUB, when the boot loader is ELILO running on an IPF

host, and when LVM2 is used.
Note that option in the example of editing a setting file refers to any

option that might be valid in the user's environment.

An example of editing the /etc/lilo.conf file (the underlined

section) is shown below.
After modifying the definition, execute /sbin/lilo command to

activate the new setting. You can delete the configuration for
