This is after the install ... Don't know how I 
could unplug the hard disk, while it's booting from 
the same hard disk ... 

It IS a Western Digital Caviar AC22000 drive. I 
might be able to dig up an even older Seagate for 
a test install.

I've never had to mess with the kernel before, 
generic always worked ... "userconfig"? I'll look 
it up. 

How do I make it use the WD driver? Will that 
affect the IDE CDROM?
