I'm booting off a SCSI device, so I doubt it's going to work any
better. Or do you mean just try it and see if it breaks in a different
spot instead?

Your installation manual requests that I submit a bug report if I
can't get it to work. It's not like I'm demanding that you fix this.
(And I'm sorry if I'm restating the obvious here.)

No, I hadn't heard about it. I'll look around for it. (Found it
already actually.) Thanks for the pointer.

Meanwhile, Nathan had some promising suggestions about upgrading the
Flash BIOS (thanks pal) which I'll probably try first. I'll try to
keep you posted.

Thanks,
