 I have since flashed the bios to 1008D, a version recommended on the 
 ASUS boards to solve the issue of the drive being seen as 137GB by 
 Windows. The upgrade lets the drive be seen as a WD2500JB, 238GB in size 
 but there has been no change in the machine's behaviour when trying to 
 boot from it under 6.0RC1. I am keeping the drive in the Compaq for now 
 so I can keep cvsupping the source. If anyone wants me to try it on the 
 ASUS board again after some code changes I'll be happy to do it, just 
 write me.
