Disk Boot Failure... V5. HELP!

Hello,
I have a v5 i-op with a v-5 hacked bios form badflash. I have a 128 meg dimm in there and I have a 20 gig Western Digital 3.5 hd connected to the i-opener with an external ps. I boot up my i-op and it detects the western digital as the master and the sandisk as the slave. The western digital use to be a slave hd in my main comp. But I bought a 45 giger and too kthis 20 out. But before that I sysed the hard drive in dos after booting with a startup disk. Okay, so I boot the i-op and it says this in nice RED letters: DISK BOOT FAILURE. I have no idea what's going on.... I'm clueless. Does the SANDISK need to be disabled before this thing will boot or what? Also, the 128 megs posts fine in the i-op. So, if you guys can help I would be greatly appreciate it!

Remove the Master & Slave Jumpers from a Western Digital Hard Drive to make it "Single"
I assume Your Partition is "Active"

Doublecheck that it boots fine in your other computer.

Hello All,
I re-did a search through the forum and found the active thing. Since my hd was a slave before, it was not active. So I set it Active. Thanks you ugys!
