Having moved my Conner 420Mb over to the Rapide, I'm having problem booting
BSD. (the CFS420 is the master drive, with a Fireball set as slave) The
kernel I'm running is the last one from the FTP site samed sa110....

The Unix partition uses the last 350Mb of the disc. I changed the devices in
the !BTRiscBSD app config window to WD1a & WD1b (cheers for the info Chris!)
When I attempt to boot, things seem to be going fine until filesystem type
things start happening, at which point I get :

panic: cannot mount root
stopped at 0xf.... blah blah

As well as this, I can't seem to get unixfs to mount it either.
Am I right in saying that you can't have a RiscBSD Partition that occupies
the whole of a disc? I know I've read it somewhere, but I don't know if this
is out of date.
Ideally, I'd like to be able to salvage some of the info on the drive, and
redo the Conner as 100% RiscBSD.


What's am I doing wrong?
