Comments/Problems:

Start
1 set expert26 ran OK up to raid partitioning (see above)
2 reset ps ran to detecting h/w last line of error "kernal BUG mm/page_alloc.c:520!"
3 nb video font was yellow on blue rather than thin grey on whatever.
4 Power off / on (inc removing cord)- expert26 mode - error "Segumentation fault" rest of screen white.
5 power off / on (inc removing cord)for at least 1 minute - expert26 mode - last error lines
"Setting up file system please wait
Segumentation fault
Kernal panic, Attempt to kill init!"
6 CTL/ALT/DEL ran to error "Setting up filesystem, please wait ..."
Much walking in circles and unpublishable mutterings!
Will try much later with noapic nolapic
NB H/W raid switched off in BIOS.
Useage is for fault tollerant server.
