That is I shifted all the PCI cards one slot to the left from the position they used to be. I had previously tried to put the graphics card in any possible slot, but to no difference. But once I moved all (incl. Adaptec AHA2940 which I had previously not touched) the problem disappared. It seems it was Adaptec that was offending it in some way - it made past the probe, all information about the two disks and a DAT was displayed and then just a hang... It works now again. The sc0 probe seems to have been the last, after it came init and mounting disks (once it made to it). Thanx to all who responded.
