My second message has the extracts of dmesg you are after. I dont recall what /dev looks like for the working DEVFS kernel (CTM src-cur 3429). These disks are not dangerously dedicated (I think). I'm pretty sure I set them up with the auto mode of disklabel. Can I tell from the disklabel if they're DD or not ?
