The loader is fine; the problem is just that Poul never finished fixing
the mountroot code. A

I've just tried and coming in via wd and ad produce the same
problem.
Note my previous comment - the access light is a steady on for
this particular drive. It's left that way when devices are
probed during startup.
My configuration FWIW -

Also of interest -
I have a seperate access light for each of my drives, as they're
in removable bays.
I notice the access light for the secondary master remaining on
after the kernel driver has done its scanning. The light goes
off on this, the failed first access. I believe the light for

Nice timing, I w
In using the ATA driver, I'm unable to automatically mount a
