hello again,
I'm not really having much luck with udev. I found today that it
fails to create /dev/cdrom and /dev/hdb although from the bug
report, the maintainer seems to think this issue is closed. Maybe
not for my iMac 500 DVD SE (summer 2000).

Not a bug, apparently.

Yep, this caught me out at midnight last night and I've yet to

I can only boot into runlevel two (where booting now stops). It
won't let me login though.
My plan was to use the debian install cd 1 to boot and mount the
linux partition. I should be able to downgrade from there, right?
The iSub (woofer) works with the 'audio' usb driver and has done
