Booting from e-sata drive
- by petersohn
I have a HP EliteBook laptop (don't know exact product number), which has an internal hard drive with Windows installed on it. I have an external hard drive with e-sata and USB ports, linux installed on it. When I try to boot from the external drive, it works if I use USB but not if I use e-sata.
In the BIOS setup, I have the following boot order set:
External SATA drive
USB Hard Drive
Notebook Upgrade Bay
Notebook Hard Drive
etc.
When I boot from another drive (such as the internal hard drive or from CD-ROM), and have the e-sata cable connected, it works perfectly.
Is there any way to boot from the e-sata drive?
