Rob,

I have a similar problem with 5.3 although I'm not doing a new install - 
I'm upgrading from an earlier 5.X. Can you please try installing a 5.X 
from December last year or earlier. Actually, you don't need to install 
anything - I'd just like to know whether it can see the disk. I've 
faised PR kern/79332 about it which contains two possible fixes.

Thanks,
