Connected up a single drive to ID-0 and installed 4-R, afterwhich cvsup'd to -stable (as of 18:00 GMT today). Had no problems, happily rebooted new kernel etc. Then shutdown machine and added a second HD at ID-1. Booted machine, boot0 recognised new HD properly, and booted from ID-0. boot2 then failed to find /kernel, so I shutdown and removed ID-1 HD. Switching on machine with only the original HD connected, boot0 came up fine, but then promptly rebooted the machine. Odd I thought, so I let it reboot, and this time after boot0 I got: BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.01 int=0000000d err=00000000 efl=00010207 eip=00000000 eax=ffffffff ebx=0001f288 ecx=00000000 edx=00000000 esi=00000000 edi=00000000 ebp=00094fd8 esp=00094fa8 cs=002b ds=0033 es=0033 fs=0033 gs=0033 ss=0033 cs:eip=a3 d8 75 02 00 89 e0 05-a0 0f 00 00 a3 dc 75 02 ss:esp=00 00 00 00 89 1a 00 00-02 00 e0 ab 44 0a 02 00 System halted So now whenever I boot, I either get that message (or similar), a "Boot error" message, a "Read error" message, or an instant reboot. Hope some of this helps. If you need any more info, just holler. Cheers -- Jonathan Perkin Voice: +44 (01225) 404422 "Unix is simple, but it takes a genius to understand the simplicity."
