The boot of etch is OK (lilo).

ext3 :
1. it's visible on /etc/fstab , and
2. On etch, I mounted /dev/sdc1 (='/' lenny) on :
debian:~# stat -f /mnt/wd01/
File: "/mnt/wd01/"

Yes, and result : the boot problem subsists.

I did, and the problem subsists too (1 drive only and no bmp or install options).
And a strange thing :
- The rescue mode invited me to mount /dev/sda1 on '/' , normal, but...
- df prints /dev/sdc1/ (and not sda1) as '/' ??
- Changing /etc/fstab or SATA connectors on my drive didn't change anything.

Lilo starts first.
Another thing I saw :
On boot, an error/warning occurs :
[ [0.260762 PCI ] cannot alocate ressource region 0 for device
0000:00:00:0
I am not sure for the quite text (it goes fast, but :
- The first number is correct,
- 'region' is '0' and
- 'device' is "a lot of" 0.
