Hey guys, got a strange one for you :)

Running 4.0-STABLE on a P2-450 Asus P2B-D 512Mb with Cheetah ST39102LW's
connected via U2W Adaptec 7890 PCI.

Connected up a single drive to ID-0 and installed 4-R, afterwhich cvsup'd to
-stable (as of 18:00 GMT today).  Had no problems, happily rebooted new kernel
etc.

Then shutdown machine and added a second HD at ID-1.  Booted machine, boot0
recognised new HD properly, and booted from ID-0.  boot2 then failed to find
/kernel, so I shutdown and removed ID-1 HD.

Switching on machine with only the original HD connected, boot0 came up fine,
but then promptly rebooted the machine.  Odd I thought, so I let it reboot,
and this time after boot0 I got:

BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.01

int=0000000d err=00000000 efl=00010207 eip=00000000
eax=ffffffff ebx=0001f288 ecx=00000000 edx=00000000
esi=00000000 edi=00000000 ebp=00094fd8 esp=00094fa8
cs=002b ds=0033 es=0033 fs=0033 gs=0033 ss=0033
cs:eip=a3 d8 75 02 00 89 e0 05-a0 0f 00 00 a3 dc 75 02
ss:esp=00 00 00 00 89 1a 00 00-02 00 e0 ab 44 0a 02 00
System halted

So now whenever I boot, I either get that message (or similar), a "Boot error"
message, a "Read error" message, or an instant reboot.

Hope some of this helps.  If you need any more info, just holler.

Cheers
