Kernel correctly identifies both hard drives (model and geometry). Upon reboot from the hard disk, everything proceeds normally until I get the 'changing root device to wd1a' message, at which point the computer locks up and the only solution is to push reset. If someone could help with this I would be grateful. PS A problem that has been in previous snaps and is still present is that the kernel mis-identifies the CPU clock speed. It reports 75 Mhz, 84 MHz, etc. (rarely 90 MHz). Regards and thanks, Tom
