i have an AMD 486/100, vlb, promise 2300 controller and a fujitsu
2.5g drive.  i have 4 partions defined, 1:dos, 2:165, 3:dos, 
4:165. i can boot all partiions. but i have noticed that
during install/boot when probing for devices the system is looking
for wd0s5, wd0s6, wd0s7, wd0s8 repeatedly and reports back an
error " ... fsbn .... error...".
would some one explain the behavior?  thank you.  --b
