Dual/Triple booting with separate disks?

[Romeyn Prescott]

sda and sdc are two HFS 4GB SCSI drives on the same card.  sdc is 
SCSI 4, and the other two are lower numbers, so the 9GB is sdc.

Good thought, though.  I HAVE triple checked the partition and ID settings.

I'm still stumped!

to be Rich Dolinsky scribbled:
