Hi Warren,
Thanks for your response. The release Day Zeroed onto the external hard
drive is V6.2 - attempted both with and without the Pre-Install Diskette to
the same end.
The panic message (after boot kabd command) is as follows:
Cannot mount root on /pseudo/md@0:0,0,blk fstype ufs
panic[cpu0]/thread=0x10402040: vfs_mountroot: cannot mount root
stopped at E_Syslimit+0x84: ta %icc,%go + 125
Feel free to decipher this at will.
Cheers,
Nic
