Hmm.. I burned the latest snapshot to CD (cdrecord) and finally got around
to trying to boot my Indy's with it.

Both seem to get the following:  (typed by hand, pardon any typo's).

Thoughts??

Also, on my R4400 box, it failed diags on startup... I'd never opened 
it, somehow both
hard-drives (1Gig seagates) were set to ID=2.   I took one out, and set 
the other to no
jumpers (should be ID=0), and it somehow shows up as *every* ID (ie, 
looks like a drive
on every scsi ID).   I set it to ID=1, and now it shows up as just drive 
1.  (and then I have
the cdrom on ID=6).   I tried several drives, and all do the same thing. 
 Seems rather strange.

HINV for the 4400 system shows:
