I've moved the devices around so that the hard disk is now the master primary
ide device, the cdrom is the slave primary device, and I reinstalled debian
from scratch (just to make sure I have crossed all my i's and dotted my t's) I
get the exact same response.

dka0 is the ide hard disk
dka100 is the ide cdrom drive
dva0 is the floppy disk
eva0 is the ethernet adapter
My firmware is SRM 6.5
I think it would be really cool to get this working, I have access to two more
of these systems for 50.00 USD each I'd like to pick em up if I can get this
running.
