I'm kinda past the "installation" stage just now (the disk in question wasn't critical to the OS install, and in fact the machine was installed and running for a few days before I actually noticed it was 'missing'). Here's some dmesg output: sym0: <875> port 0x2000-0x20ff mem 0xc6fff000-0xc6ffffff,0xc6ffdf00-0xc6ffdfff irq 10 at device 9.0 on pci1 sym0: No NVRAM, ID 7, Fast-20, SE, parity checking sym1: <875> port 0x2400-0x24ff mem 0xc6ffe000-0xc6ffefff,0xc6ffde00-0xc6ffdeff irq 11 at device 9.1 on pci1 sym1: No NVRAM, ID 7, Fast-20, SE, parity checking ...

I've never noted any errors at all regarding these disks, which is why it's only now when I've gone to partition the 2 18 Gigs I've only just noticed one missing! The controller is the on-board Symbios-based one. Is there any significance to the order the disks are detected and displayed in dmesg, above? I have another identical machine (running Linux) with two more 18.2Gs, unfortunately it is in production so I can't play around with that and see how it compares. Jethro.
