Anyway, I notice that the 3.0 SNAP install ignored my partition sizes and made my / (root) 31Mb, instead of the 150Mb that I wanted. Needless to say, that makes that particular partition 96% full (ouch). I'll install to da1 and boot there manually until I can relabel and format da0. Does the install program have hard-coded partition sizes? The install program also did not detect my IDE CD-ROM (I hope the reason is IDE CD-ROM support is not in GENERIC kernel), so I had to do a network install (anybody need a custom burned SNAP CD?). Will the ATAPI option in the kernel conf work for Alpha like it does for Intel? Anybody with a tuned kernel config for a DEC PW433au, I sure would appreciate a copy! Thanks!
