Suse Linux & WIn2k Server OS loader....for OS's on different drives

I had installed win2k Adv server on a RAID 0 array and it was working fine.

I proceeded to install SUSE LINUX 7.3 Pro on a scsi drive I had. I would freeze upon getting into the loading screen. I then removed the RAID card(I kept track of cable in the array) and proceeded to install sus..which worked flawlessly.


Here is the problem...

I can boot into either OS if I set the bios to that card(IDE RAID or SCSI). My question is....

Is there any OS loader that you know of that supports SCSI? I know XOSL is great, but from past experience it doesn't seem like it supports scsi?

Can anyone help me out?

THanks

FWIW:

SuSE 7.3 is not compatible with the Promise Fasttrak100 RAID controllers...if your first hard disk is configured as being part of a RAID array.

I have a Tekram dc-200 RAID controller though, and liux is on ascsi drive on a scsi adapter...as a matter of fact, I'm in linux at the moment....

Stilll, I assume that doesn't ammter much because I was hoping htere was windows-based program that could do this for me...

Like I said, Xosl might have worked,,,except that it hasn't recognized scsi drives
